And we simply cannot be constant with the fact that God’s cause is not always the successful one, that we really could be “unsuccessful”; and yet be on the right road. But this is where we find out whether we have begun in faith or in a burst of enthusiasm.

The fearful danger of the present time is that above the cry for authority, we forget that man stands alone before the ultimate authority, and that anyone who lays violent hands on man here, is infringing eternal laws, and taking upon himself superhuman authority, which will eventually crush him.

Only those who obey can believe, and only those who believe can obey.

The Lord stands above the new day, for God has made it. All restlessness, all worry, and anxiety flee before him.

We are to find God in what we know, not in what we don't know.

There is a wrong way of staying in the world and a wrong way of fleeing from it. In both cases we are fashioning ourselves according to the world.

One act of obedience is better than one hundred sermons.
