The Spirit of God leads the people of God to submit to the Word of God.
God does not love us because Christ died for us; Christ died for us because God loved us.
At every step of our Christian development and in every sphere of our Christian discipleship, pride is the greatest enemy and humility our greatest friend.
The chief reason people do not know God is not because He hides from them but because they hide from Him.
Saving faith is resting faith, the trust which relies entirely on the Savior.
Truth without love is too hard; love without truth is too soft.
Christians who neglect the Bible simply do not mature.
What we need is not more learning, not more eloquence, not more persuasion, not more organization, but more power from the Holy Spirit.
Social responsibility becomes an aspect not of Christian mission only, but also of Christian conversion. It is impossible to be truly converted to God without being thereby converted to our neighbor.
These then are the marks of the ideal Church – love, suffering, holiness, sound doctrine, genuineness, evangelism and humility. They are what Christ desires to find in His churches as He walks among them.
The chief reason why the Christian believes in the divine origin of the Bible is that Jesus Christ Himself taught it.
The gospel is NOT preached if Christ is not preached.

The essence of apostasy is changing sides from that of the crucified to that of the crucifier.
No theology is genuinely Christian which does not arise from and focus on the cross.
Scripture is the royal scepter by which King Jesus rules his church.
Perhaps the transformation of the disciples of Jesus is the greatest evidence of all for the resurrection.
Faith’s only function is to receive what grace offers.
It is no exaggeration to say that without Scripture a Christian life is impossible.
Christianity is in its very essence a resurrection religion. The concept of resurrection lies at its heart. If you remove it, Christianity is destroyed.
