Only the redeemed have the ability to like what God likes and to be pleased with what pleases God.

If you cannot worship the Lord in the midst of your responsibilitie s on Monday, it is not very likely that you were worshiping on Sunday!

Be hard on yourself and easy on others. Carry your own cross but never lay one on the back of another

Dare to contend without being contentious. Preserve the truth without hurting people. Love and be charitable.

Real faith invariably produces holiness of heart and righteousness of life.

We may say simply that in the sight of God we are judged not so much by what we do as by our reasons for doing it.

To me, it has always been difficult to understand those evangelical Christians who insist upon living in the crisis as if no crisis existed. They say they serve the Lord, but they divide their days so as to leave plenty of time to play and loaf and enjoy the pleasures of the world as well. They are at ease while the world burns.
