The cross stands high above the opinions of men and to that cross all opinions must come at last for judgment.

When we allow God to be exalted in our difficulties we are in the perfect place to smell the fragrance of His Presence.

One hundred religious persons knit into a unity by careful organizations do not constitute a church any more than eleven dead men make a football team. The first requisite is life, always.

The only Christian you want to listen to is the one who gives you more of a hunger for God.

Our mistake is that we want God to send revival on our terms. We want to get the power of God into our hands, to call it to us that it may work for us in promoting and furthering our kind of Christianity. We want still to be in charge, guiding the chariot through the religious sky in the direction we want it to go, shouting "Glory to God," but modestly accepting a share of the glory for ourselves in a nice inoffensive sort of way. We are calling on God to send fire on our altars, completely ignoring the fact that they are OUR altars and not God's.

Faith never means gullibility. The man who believes everything is as far from God as the man who refuses to believe anything.

True faith is never found alone; it is accompanied by expectation.
