Over the epitaph of this generation it will say ENTERTAINED TO DEATH.

I used to tell young preachers, in order to preach you've got to have the power of God on your life. Now I tell them, in order to tie your shoes you've got to have the power of God on your life.

Men and women who are used of GOD, if I had only a few words to describe them, they are the passionate-weak, they are the violently-desperate.

God does not call men to make Jesus Lord (as though they had such power), but to live in absolute submission to the Lord He has made.

When we realize what we were before Christ and what we deserved in that state, it further magnifies the enormity of the gospel for us.

The devil would gladly give a Bible to every man and promote obedience to its commands if in exchange we would surrender to him the Gospel

Right now if this preacher died he would go to heaven. Not because I spent years in the jungles and the Andes Mountains of Peru. Not because of piety, devotion or bible study. Not because of denominational affiliation, baptism, or participation in the Lord’s supper. If I died right now, I would go to heaven because two thousand years ago the Son of God shed His blood for this wretched man. And that is my hope.
