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

The Holy Spirit's main ministry is not to give thrills but to create in us Christlike character.

The Life of true holiness is rooted in the soil of awed adoration

The Christian's instinct of trust and worship are stimulated very powerfully by knowledge of the greatness of God.

Wherever Christianity has produced what historians call a 'popular piety' claiming to be part of the national heritage, anti-Christian reaction among the intelligentsia has followed.

The healthy Christian is not necessarily the extrovert, ebullient Christian, but the Christian who has a sense of God's presence stamped deep on his soul, who trembles at God's word, who lets it dwell in him richly by constant meditation upon it, and who tests and reforms his life daily in response to it.

There's a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. When you truly know God, you have energy to serve Him, boldness to share Him, and contentment in Him.
