To be in Christ—that makes you fit for heaven; but for Christ to be in you—that makes you fit for earth! To be in Christ changes your destination; but for Christ to be in you—that changes your destiny! The one makes heaven your home—the other makes this world His workshop.
– Ian Thomas –
from The Saving Life of Christ
There must be a divorce between you and sin, or there can be no marriage between you and Christ.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Discipleship means adherence to Christ, and, because Christ is the object of that adherence, it must take the form of discipleship. An abstract Christology, a doctrinal system, a general religious knowledge on the subject of grace or on the forgiveness of sins, render discipleship superfluous.
– Dietrich Bonhoeffer –
The ultimate goal of Jesus for His disciples was that His life be reproduced in them, and through them into the lives of others.
– Robert Coleman –
May God so fill us today with the heart of Christ that we may glow with the divine fire of holy desire.
– AB Simpson –
Live to be forgotten, so Christ can be remembered.
– DE Hoste –
It is no loss to lose all but Jesus.
– Charles Spurgeon –
You can never learn that Christ is all you need, until Christ is all you have.
– Corrie ten Boom –
God gives His own self totally to us that we may offer ourselves completely to Him.
