What is Christianity all about? It is about an intimate relationship with God. And I HATE a christendom, a churchianity that God is not big enough and glorious enough so that we have to give them other things.

I can get more out of God by believing Him for one minute than by shouting at Him all night.

I was thinking, the other day, how different Christ is from all the friends and helpers that we have. They bring us good things, but Jesus gives us Himself. He does not merely give us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption, but He Himself is made of God all these things to us! Hence we can never do without Him. When very ill, you are pleased to see the doctor, but when you are getting well you say to yourself, “I shall be glad to see the back of the good man, for that will be a sure sign that I am off the sick list.” Ah, but when Jesus heals a soul, he wants to see Jesus more than ever! Our longing for the constant company of our Lord is the sign that we are getting well! He who longs for Jesus to abide with Him, forever, is healed of his plague! We never outgrow Christ—we only grow to hunger more and more!

For a small reward, a man will hurry away on a long journey; while for eternal life, many will hardly take a single step.

Do not pray for easy lives; pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers; pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you yourself shall be a miracle.

He frequently emphasized the fact that anything which is not Christ in resurrection is not the church.

At any point in all of Eternity, we can say, “This is just the beginning.” How wonderful for those who are with Christ. How unimaginably dreadful for those who are not.

A hundred years ago they read less about the Bible and more out of the old Book itself!
