You must be DIVORCED from your SIN, or you cannot be MARRIED to CHRIST.
It is well said that neglected prayer is the birth-place of all evil.
Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church.
He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own.
Many books in my library are now behind and beneath me. They were good in their way once, and so were the clothes I wore when I was ten years old; but I have outgrown them. Nobody ever outgrows Scripture; the book widens and deepens with our years.
Where God takes such pains to teach, we ought to be at pains to learn.
My brethren, let me say, be like Christ at all times. Imitate him in "public." Most of us live in some sort of public capacity-many of us are called to work before our fellow-men every day. We are watched; our words are caught; our lives are examined-taken to pieces. The eagle-eyed, argus-eyed world observes everything we do, and sharp critics are upon us. Let us live the life of Christ in public. Let us take care that we exhibit our Master, and not ourselves-so that we can say, "It is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives in me."
Let us go to Calvary to learn how we may be forgiven. And then let us linger there to learn how to forgive.
Sorrow for sin should be the keenest sorrow; joy in the Lord should be the loftiest joy.
God has not made this world to be a nest for us, and if we try to make it such for ourselves, he plants thorns in it, so that we may be compelled to mount and find our soul’s true home somewhere else, in a higher and nobler sphere than this poor world can give.
Without Christ there is no hope.
Not that our salvation should be the effect of our work, but our work should be the evidence of our salvation.
I have learned to kiss the waves that throw me up against the Rock of Ages.
May your convictions be deep, your love real, and your desires earnest
A holy life is in itself a wonderful power, and will make up for many deficiencies; it is in fact the best sermon a man can ever deliver.
Patience is a grace as difficult as it is necessary, and as hard to come by as it is precious when it is gained.
It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.
If you want that splendid power in prayer, you must remain in loving, living, lasting, conscious, practical, abiding union with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Be thankful for the thorns and thistles, which keep you from being in love with this world, and becoming an idolater.
Long ago I ceased to count heads. Truth is usually in the minority in this evil world
He (Jesus) will reign over you, either by your consent, or without it.
Do not despair, dear heart, but come to the Lord with all your jagged wounds, black bruises, and running sores. He alone can heal, and He delights to do it. It is our Lord's office to bind up the brokenhearted, and He is gloriously at home at it.
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
The full he empties, and the empty he fills.
Beloved, there are heights in experimental knowledge of the things of God that the eagles discerning eye and philosophical thought have never seen...God alone can take us there, but the chariot in which He takes us up and the fiery steeds that pull the chariot, are prevailing prayers.
