There are no crown-wearers in heaven who were not cross-bearers here below.

I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.

I take leave to contradict those who say that salvation is an evolution! All that ever can be evolved out of the sinful heart of man is sin-and nothing else! Salvation is the free gift of God, by Jesus Christ, and the work of it is supernatural. It is done by the Lord Himself, and He has power to do it, however weak, no, however dead in sin, the sinner may be!

Wherever Jesus may lead us, He goes before us. If we don't know where we are going, we know with whom we go.

Go forth today, by the help of God's Spirit, vowing and declaring that in life - come poverty, come wealth, in death - come pain or come what may, you are and ever must be the Lord's. For this is written on your heart, 'We love Him because He first loved us.'

The egg is white though the hen is black as coal...Out of evil comes good, through the great goodness of God.

It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.
