Christmas is based on an exchange of gifts, the gift of God to man - His unspeakable gift of His Son, and the gift of man to God - when we present our bodies a living sacrifice.

Faith has no value of its own, it has value only as it connects us with Him. It is a trick of Satan to get us occupied with examining our faith instead of resting in the Faithful One.

When we are weakest and most despondent, Jesus is most considerate. When there is a break in our progress or we have a spell of depression, he sees the whole of our lives and in the light of that He is longsuffering with discordant details.

We need men of the cross, with the message of the cross, bearing the marks of the cross.

I can conceive of no greater, more romantic and interesting adventure than to undertake to live like Jesus in this complicated day.

We are suffering from a believism that never has believed, and a receivism that never has received, and it leads to deceivism.

To the average professed Christian today, living so far below normal, New Testament Christianity would be a shock.
