It's not my business to try and make God think like me... but to try, in prayer and penitence, to think like God.

It is quite impossible to worship God without loving Him.

Christianity takes for granted the absence of any self-help and offers a power which is nothing less than the power of God.

We fear extremes and shy away from too much ardor in religion as if it were possible to have too much love or too much faith or too much holiness.

To know God is to fear Him. And this fear is to love Him as He deserves to be loved.

The fact is that, we are not producing saints. We are making converts to an effete type of Christianity, that bears little resemblance to that of the New Testament. The average so-called Bible Christian of our times is but a shallow display of true sainthood. Yet, we put millions of dollars behind ‘movements’ to perpetuate this lower form of religion and attack the man who dares to challenge the wisdom of it.

God may allow His servant to succeed when He has disciplined him to a point where he does not need to succeed to be happy. The man who is elated by success and is cast down by failure is still a carnal man. At best his fruit will have a worm in it.
