The children of God all have a cross to bear. A suffering Savior generally has suffering disciples.
Miserable indeed is that religious teaching which calls itself Christian, and yet contains nothing of the cross.
There will be no universal peace until the Prince of Peace appears.
We must read our Bibles like men digging for hidden treasure.
Prayer is the very life-breath of true Christianity.
It costs something to be a true Christian. It will cost us our sins, our self-righteousn ess, our ease and our worldliness.
