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

Do I as a Christian understand myself? Do I know my own real identity? My own real destiny? I am a child of God, God is my Father; heaven is my home; every day is one day nearer. My Saviour is my brother; every Christian is my brother too. Say it over and over again to yourself first thing in the morning, last thing at night, as you wait for the bus, any time when your mind is free, and ask God that you may be enabled to live as one who knows it is all utterly and completely true. For this is the Christians secret of the Christian life, of a God-honouring life.

Any theology that does not lead to song is, at a fundamental level, a flawed theology.

Not until we have become humble and teachable, standing in awe of God's holiness and sovereignty...a cknowledging our own littleness, distrusting our own thoughts, and willing to have our minds turned upside down, can divine wisdom become ours.

Once you become aware that the main business that you are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place of their own accord.

We complain today that ministers do not know how to preach; but is it not equally true that our congregations do not know how to hear?

If I were the devil, one of my first aims would be to stop folk from digging into the Bible.
