Anything that belittles or obliterates the holiness of God by a false view of the love of God, is untrue to the revelation of God given by Jesus Christ.

A man ceases to be an honest doubter the moment he refuses one way of getting at the truth because he does not like that way.

Faith that is sure of itself is not faith; faith that is sure of God is the only faith there is.

God has frequently to knock the bottom board out of your experience if you are a saint in order to get you into contact with Himself.
