The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.

Wherever we find Jesus is the perfect place to worship.

The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts; the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos.

The impulse to pursue God originates with God, but the outworking of that impulse is our following hard after Him.

...revivals (or any other spiritual gifts and graces) come only to those who want them badly enough. It may be said without qualification that every man is as holy and as full of the Spirit as he wants to be. He may not be as full as he wishes he were, but he is most certainly as full as he wants to be.

The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.

If the envious, the defamers and the backbiters were taken out of the average church, there would be revival overnight.
