"Worldliness is what any particular culture does to make sin look
normal and righteousness look strange." - David Wells
"When preachers do not call sin, sin, the people begin to wink at
sin!" - Dr. Micheal Useph
"I am not permitted to let my love be so merciful as to tolerate and
endure false doctrine. When faith and doctrine are concerned and
endangered, neither love nor patience are in order.... when these
are concerned, neither toleration nor mercy are in order, but only
anger, dispute, and destruction -- to be sure, only with the Word
of God as our weapon." - Martin Luther.
"To remain divided is sinful! Did not our Lord pray, that they may
be one, even as we are one"? (John 17:22). A chorus of ecumenical
voices keep harping the unity tune. What they are saying is,
"Christians of all doctrinal shades and beliefs must come together
in one visible organization, regardless... Unite, unite!" Such
teaching is false, reckless and dangerous. Truth alone must
determine our alignments. Truth comes before unity. Unity without
truth is hazardous. Our Lord's prayer in John 17 must be read in
its full context. Look at verse 17: "Sanctify them through thy truth;
thy word is truth." Only those sanctified through the Word can be
one in Christ. To teach otherwise is to betray the Gospel."
-Charles H. Spurgeon.
"Let us think often that our only business in this life is to please
God. Perhaps all besides is but folly and vanity."
- Brother Lawrence
"The greatest need we have is not to do things, but to believe
things." - Oswald Chambers
"Growth is not more knowledge or increase of years; it is simply
more of Him and less of me. He increases as I decrease. This is
what it means to be a disciple." - Chip Brogden
"Some say that faith is the gift of God. So is the air, but you have
to breathe it; so is bread, but you have to eat it. Some are wanting
some miraculous kind of feeling. That is not faith. 'Faith cometh by
hearing and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom 10:17). That is
whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith
to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to
take God at His Word." - D. L. Moody
Mr. Spurgeon leaning over the platform of a church where a work
of grace was going on, heard a penitent below in great distress
pray earnestly, 'Lord, make a good job of me! Lord, make a good
job of me!'
