Sanctification means the impartation of the Holy qualities of Jesus Christ. It is His patience, His love, His holiness, His faith, His purity, His godliness, that is manifested in and through every sanctified soul. Sanctification is not drawing from Jesus the power to be holy; it is drawing from Jesus the holiness that was manifested in Him, and He manifests it in me.

God nowhere tells us to give up things for the sake of giving them up. He tells us to give them up for the sake of the only thing worth having - viz., life with Himself. It is a question of loosening the bonds that hinder the life.

God never fits His word to suit me; He fits me to suit His word.

Our work begins where God's grace has laid the foundation; we are not to save souls, but to disciple them.

Spiritual maturity is not reached by the passing of the years, but by obedience to the will of God.

There is no condition of life in which we cannot abide in Jesus. We have to learn to abide in Him wherever we are placed.

There is nothing attractive about the gospel to the natural man; the only man who finds the gospel attractive is the man who is convicted of sin.
