When we accept Christ we enter into three new relationships: (1) We enter into a new relationship with God. The judge becomes the father; the distant becomes the near; strangeness becomes intimacy and fear becomes love. (2) We enter into a new relationship with our fellow men. Hatred becomes love; selfishness becomes service; and bitterness becomes forgiveness. (3) We enter into a new relationship with ourselves. Weakness becomes strength; frustration becomes achievement; and tension becomes peace.
William BarclayWe reverence God and we hallow God's name when our life is such that it brings honor to God and attracts others to Him.
William BarclayIn the time we have it is surely our duty to do all the good we can to all the people we can in all the ways we can.
William BarclayThe Christian is called upon to be the partner of God in the work of the conversion of men.
