When you read the Bible, you must think that here and now, God is speaking with me

The only man who has the right to say that he is justified by grace alone is the man who has left all to follow Christ. Such a man knows that the call to discipleship is a gift of grace, and that the call is inseparable from the grace. But those who try to use this grace as a dispensation from following Christ are simply deceiving themselves.

You can only learn what obedience is by obeying

What we shall need is not geniuses, or cynics, or misanthropes, or clever tacticians, but plain, honest, straghtforward men.

The will of God, to which the law gives expression, is that men should defeat their enemies by loving them.

We have learnt, rather too late, that action comes, not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.

grace at a low cost, is in the last resort simply a new law, which brings neither help nor freedom.
