The first thing a man must do if he desires to be used in the Lord's work, is to make an unconditional surrender of himself to God.

God has nothing to say to the self-righteous.

It does not take long to tell where a man's treasure is. In fifteen minutes' conversation with most men, you can tell whether their treasures are on the earth or in Heaven.

I never knew up to that time that God loved us so much. This heart of mine began to thaw out; I could not keep back the tears. I just drank it in...I tell you there is one thing that draws above everything else in the world and that is love.

You cannot find, I believe, a case in the Bible where a man is converted without God's calling in some human agency--using some human instrument.

So few grow, because so few study.

A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough today to last him for the next 6 months, nor can he inhale sufficient air into his lungs with one breath to sustain life for a week to come. We are permitted to draw upon God's store of grace from day to day as we need it.
