I am convinced that many evangelicals are not truly and soundly converted. Among the evangelicals it is entirely possible to come into membership, to ooze in by osmosis, to leak through the cells of the church and never know what it means to be born of the Spirit and washed in the blood. A great deal that passes for the deeper life is nothing more or less than basic Christianity.

Sin is a poisonous weed that throws the whole nature out of order. The inner life disintegrates; the flesh lusts after forbidden pleasures; the moral judgment is distorted so that often good appears evil and evil good; time is chosen over eternity, earth over heaven and death over life.

The Holy Spirit did not come to make them of one accord, He came because they were of one accord. … It is not the music that tunes your piano, it’s the tuned piano that makes your music.

I do not preach any new truth. I do not have any new doctrine … We must have a revival that will mean purity of heart as a normal standard for everybody. We must be clean people, and not only clean outside.

Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ…

A Pharisee is hard on others and easy on himself, but a spiritual man is easy on others and hard on himself.
