The more faithful preachers are to the Word of God in their preaching, the more liable they are to the charge of hypocrisy. Why? Because the more faithful people are to the Word of God the higher the message is that they will preach. The higher the message, the further they will be from obeying themselves.

What higher approval could a person enjoy than to know that what he or she has done is pleasing to God?

I think the greatest weakness in the church today is that almost no one believes that God invests His power in the Bible. Everyone is looking for power in a program, in a methodology, in a technique, in anything and everything but that in which God has placed it—His Word. He alone has the power to change lives for eternity, and that power is focused on the Scriptures.

The Word of God can be in the mind without being in the heart; but it cannot be in the heart without first being in the mind.

I get irritated when I hear preachers say, "Come to Jesus and all your problems will be over." That's just simply a lie.

It's a sin to bore people.

The promises of God for tomorrow are the anchor for believers today.
