Some people’s lives would drastically change if they would obey God as strictly as they obey their doctors.
The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.
We can seek God and find him! God is knowable, touchable, hearable, seeable, with the mind, the hands, the ears and the eyes of the inner man.
A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to ‘accept’ Christ without forsaking the world.
When the Holy Spirit is in full control of our lives, He will expect our obedience to the written Word of God. But it is part of our human problem that we would like to be full of the Spirit and yet go on and do as we please!
I don’t want the world to define God for me. I want the Holy Spirit to reveal God to me.
God purposed redemption in Christ Jesus before the world began, and His plan does not need any editing by man.
If your life does not worship God, your lips do not worship God either.
No one can know truth except the one who obeys truth. You think you know truth. People memorize the Scriptures by the yard, but that is not a guarantee of knowing the truth. Truth is not a text. Truth is in the text, but it takes the text plus the Holy Spirit to bring truth to a human soul.
To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men. This is such a common truth that one hesitates to mention it, yet it appears to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians today.
When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christlike, it resolves a great deal of anxiety.
The only Christian you want to listen to is the one who gives you more of a hunger for God.
Anything God has ever done, he can do now. Anything God has ever done anywhere, he can do here. Anything God has ever done for anyone, he can do for you.
Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my enemy, however harmless it may appear to be.
We go astray when we think that we can do spiritual work without spiritual power.
The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
Plain horse sense ought to tell us that anything that makes no change in the man who professes it makes no difference to God, either.
