We must do something about the cross, and there’s only one of two things we can do- flee it or die upon it!
To know the Creator and the God of all the universe is to revere Him. It is to bow down before Him in wonder and awesome fear.
The atonement in Jesus Christ's blood is perfect; there isn't anything that can be added to it. It is spotless, impeccable, flawless. It is perfect as God is perfect.
A true and safe leader is likely to be one who has no desire to lead, but is forced into a position of leadership by the inward pressure of the Holy Spirit and the press of the external situation.
We know how God would act if he were in our place - he has been in our place.
Wherever we turn in the church of God, there is Jesus. He is the beginning, middle and end of everything to us.
We taste Thee, O Thou Living Bread, And long to feast upon Thee still: We drink of Thee, the Fountainhead And thirst our souls from Thee to fill.
The most critical need of the church at this moment is men, bold men, free men. The church must seek, in prayer and much humility, the coming again of men made of the stuff of which prophets and martyrs are made.
One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.
When the Spirit illuminates the heart, then a part of the man sees which never saw before; a part of him knows which never knew before, and that with a kind of knowing which the most acute thinker cannot imitate.
We often try to put God in a box. The God who fits in our boxes isn't the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In trying to count our many blessings the difficulty is not to find things to count, but to find time to enumerate them all.
Shall it be a religion or shall it be Christ? Shall it be churchianity or shall it be Jesus Christ? Shall it be pride or shall it be humility in Jesus Christ?
Self is the opaque veil that hides the face of God from us.
I can safely say, on the authority of all that is revealed in the Word of God, that any man or woman on this earth who is bored and turned off by worship is not ready for heaven.
How unutterably sweet is the knowledge that our Heavenly Father knows us completely. No talebearer can inform on us; no enemy can make an accusation stick; no forgotten skeleton can come tumbling out of some hidden closet to abash us and expose out past; no unsuspected weakness in our characters can come to light to turn God away from us, since He knew us utterly before we knew him and called us to Himself in the full knowledge of everything that was against us.
Our problem is that we go from toy to toy rather than from glory to glory.
Many things about our salvation are beyond our comprehension, but not beyond our trust.
The big problem is not whether the Bible is true. The big problem is whether it is true in you.
We tend by a secret law of the soul to move towards our mental image of God.
