Faith creates nothing; it simply reckons upon that which is already there.

The veil of money has never been about how much money you have but about how much money has you.

What is wisdom? It is the skill to achieve the perfect means by the perfect ends

I am among those who believe that our Western civilization is on its way to perishing. It has many commendable qualities, most of which it has borrowed from the Christian ethic, but it lacks the element of moral wisdom that would give it permanence. Future historians will record that we of the twentieth century had intelligence enough to create a great civilization but not the moral wisdom to preserve it.

I must be frank in my feeling that a notable heresy has come into being throughout our evangelical Christian circles -- the widely accepted concept that we humans can choose to accept Christ only because we need Him as Saviour and that we have the right to postpone our obedience to Him as Lord as long as we want to... The truth is that salvation apart from obedience is unknown in the sacred scripture... Apart from obedience, there can be no salvation, for salvation without obedience is a self-contradictory impossibility.

God's justice and God's mercy do not quarrel with each other.

The meetings least attended in our churches today are the ones whose only attraction is God.
