“It is a life utterly outpoured for the kingdom of God and lived in complete disregard for one’s personal happiness.”

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward faith.

Christ is the Son of God. He died to atone for men’s sin, and after three days rose again. This is the most important fact in the universe. I die believing in Christ.

There is nothing more tragic than to come to the end of life and know we have been on the wrong course.

Frequently the enemy entices Christians to harbor an unforgiving spirit – a very common symptom indeed among God’s children. Such bitterness and fault-finding and enmity inflict a severe blow upon spiritual life.

Our old history ends with the Cross; our new history begins with the resurrection.

There is a line drawn by God, a boundary where by virtue of his own very presence Satan’s writ does not run. Let God but occupy all the space himself, and what room is left for the evil one?

The ‘flesh’ is too bad to be cleansed; it must be crucified.

The Christian faith begins not with a big DO but with a big DONE.

I consecrate myself to God to do His will where I am, be it in school, office, or kitchen, or wherever He may, in His wisdom, send me.

The devil abhors light and truth because these remove the ground of his working.

God has always one sufficient answer, His Son Jesus Christ, and he is the answer to every need.

To remove warfare from a spiritual life is to render it unspiritual.

God will not give me humility, or patience, or holiness, or love as separate investments of His grace. He has given only one gift to meet our need, His Son Christ Jesus.

To bear the cross means that you refrain from doing what you have the power to do. You are qualified to fulfill your desire, yet you refrain from doing so.

If we just had more revelation of what we already have, there would be far less prayers and far more praise.

Life in the spirit is a suffering way, filled with watching and laboring, burdened by weariness and trial, punctuated by heartbreak and conflict.

The non-Christian nations of this world will also be defeated. Once the earth has been subdued. Jesus will come back to earth and be given the Kingdom that has been won for Him by this manchild company.

Perfectionism is the counterfeit of excellence. Excellence is Kingdom, while perfectionism is religion. What ever you do, do it with all you might, and as unto the Lord. That is excellence.

If Christians would have the same faith in their God that non-Christians have in a mere materialistic idea, ‘Thy Kingdom come’ would shortly be a reality in this world of sorrow and travail.

I am not really much interested in talking to adults, although I suppose practically every mother in the kingdom knows my name and my books. It’s their children I love.

The gospel is not only the way to enter the kingdom; it is the way to live in the kingdom.

The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of this world.

Thus is the excellence of God magnified and the greatness of His kingdom made manifest;

The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of this world; it will accept those whom breeding and intellect and culture have alike rejected.
