First of all, the evangelical is one who is entirely subservient to the Bible. This is true of every evangelical. He is a man of one book; he starts with it; he submits himself to it; this is his authority.

If in a Christian pulpit you have no business saying, "I suggest to you" No! "These things I declare to you."

The glory of the gospel is that when the church is absolutely different from the world, she invariably attracts it.

To love to preach is one thing; to love to whom you preach is quite another.

Conviction is not repentance; conviction leads to repentance. But you can be convicted without repentance.

Have you realized that most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself?

So let me put it thus: Hold on to your principles of morality and ethics, use your willpower to the limit, pay great heed to every noble, uplifting desire that is in you; but realize that these things alone are not enough, that they will never bring you to the desired place. We have to realize that all our best is totally inadequate, that a spiritual battle must be fought in a spiritual manner.
