Unwillingness to accept God's 'way of escape' from temptation frightens me - what a rebel yet resides within.
Jim ElliotSurely those who know the great passionate heart of Jehovah must deny their own loves to share in the expression of His.
Jim ElliotI have prayed for new men, fiery, reckless men, possessed of uncontrollably youthful passion-these lit by the Spirit of God. I have prayed for new words, explosive, direct, simple words. I have prayed for new miracles. Explaining old miracles will not do. If God is to be known as the God who does wonders in heaven and earth, then God must produce for this generation. Lord, fill preachers and preaching with Thy power. How long dare we go on without tears, without moral passions, hatred and love? Not long, I pray, Lord Jesus, not long.
