“Nearness to God brings likeness to God. The more you see God the more of God will be seen in you.”

The Bible is not the light of the world, it is the light of the Church. But the world does not read the Bible, the world reads Christians! “You are the light of the world.”

The early morning hour should be dedicated to praise: do not the birds set us the example?

The more you read the Bible; and the more you meditate on it, the more you will be astonished with it.

Every Christian man has a choice between being humble and being humbled.

Right is right though all condemn, and wrong is wrong though all approve.

Morality may keep you out of jail, but it takes the blood of Jesus Christ to keep you out of hell.

Of two evils, choose neither.

We must all learn to hear what we do not like. The question is not, ‘Is it pleasant?’ but, ‘Is it true?’

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

You will never know the fullness of Christ until you know the emptiness of everything but Christ.

To trust God in the light is nothing, but trust him in the dark-that is faith.

Unless you have forgiven others you read your own death warrant when you repeat the Lord’s Prayer.

We wept when we were born though all around us smiled; so shall we smile when we die while all around us weep.

Defend the Bible? I’d sooner defend a lion. You don’t defend the Bible; you open its cage and let it roar.

It is not a matter of time so much as a matter of heart; if you have the heart to pray, you will find the time.

Unbelief will destroy the best of us; faith will save the worst of us.

Let it never surprise true Christians if they are slandered and misrepresented in this world. They must not expect to fare better than their Lord.

Once we deeply trust that we ourselves are precious in God’s eyes, we are able to recognize the preciousness of others and their unique places in God’s heart.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful.

I think that God kind of put me in the place in my life to not be quiet about it, not be quiet about Him, but to reach people and to inspire people.

The point of your life is to point to Him. Whatever you are doing, God wants to be glorified, because this whole thing is His.

May nothing entice me till I happily make my way to Jesus Christ! Fire, cross, struggles with wild beasts, wrenching of bones, mangling of limbs – let them come to me, provided only I make my way to Jesus Christ.

[God] wants you to have something far better than riches and gold, and that is helpless dependence upon Him.

Celebrate what God has given others. Leverage what God has given you.
