Christian Life

Are you a doer or a talker? – John Bunyan

At the day of Doom men shall be judged according to their fruits. It will not be said then, did you believe? But, were you doers or talkers only?

– John Bunyan –

Called Holy – JC Ryle

I cannot see how any man deserves to be called “holy,” who willfully allows himself in sins, and is not humbled and ashamed because of them.

– JC Ryle –

Jesus didn’t die to save us from hell – Leonard Ravenhill

Without holiness, no one shall see the Lord. Jesus didn’t die to save us from hell. That’s a fringe benefit! He died to get total occupation of us … [and to make us] holy in speech … in actions … in everything.

– Leonard Ravenhill –

I give up all my own plans and purposes – Betty Scott Stam

Lord, I give up all my own plans and purposes. All my own desires and hopes and accept Your will for my life. I give myself, my life, my all, utterly to You to be Yours forever. Fill me and seal me with Your Holy Spirit. Use me as You will, send me where you will, work out Your whole will in my life at any cost, now and forever. To me to live is Christ. Amen.

– Betty Scott Stam –

Ultimate goal of Jesus – Robert Coleman

The ultimate goal of Jesus for His disciples was that His life be reproduced in them, and through them into the lives of others.

Defined by your relationship – John Oswalt

To be a Christian is defined by your relationship toward God as revealed in your conformity to God’s character … God is saying to you and to me, “Come, come walk with me. Come share My goals, share My pace, share My direction, share My walk.” … Are you a Christian? … God says, “Let me see your walk.”
