Nothing in fiction is so fantastic as is this truth of the Incarnation.

There are ministers who never speak of repentance or self-denial. Naturally they are popular, but they are false prophets.

One of the many divine qualities of the Bible is that it does not yield its secrets to the irreverent and the censorious.

[N]obody can produce new evidence of your depravity that will make God change his mind. For God justified you with (so to speak) his eyes open. He knew the worst about you at the time when he accepted you for Jesus' sake; and the verdict which he passed then was, and is, final.

It is Deism which depicts God as the passive onlooker rather than the active governor of His world, and which assures us that the guarantee of human freedom lies in the fact that men's actions are not under God's control.
