Wherever we turn in the church of God, there is Jesus. He is the beginning, middle and end of everything to us.

Wherever the Word comes without power its essential content is missed.

Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down by destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength before going out to face the world again.

If I understand this correctly Christ taught here the alarming doctrine that the desire for honor among men made belief impossible.

Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.

When a person, yielding to God and believing the truth of God, is filled with the Spirit of God, even his faintest whisper will be worship.

Breezy, self-confident Christians tell us how wonderful it is to accept Christ and then have a good time all the rest of your life; the Lord won't demand anything of you. Yes, He will, my friend! The Lord will demand everything of you. And when you give it all up to Him, He may bless it and hand it back, but on the other hand He may not.
