Holiness

My Motto – Samuel Logan Brengle

My Motto – Samuel Logan Brengle

For the past ten years God has enabled me to keep a perfect, unbroken purpose to serve Him with my whole heart. No temptation has swerved that steadfast purpose. “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” (Exodus 28:36) has been my motto. My heart pants after Him and, as I seek Him in fervent, patient, believing prayer and in diligent searching of His Word, He is deepening the work of grace in my soul.

The inner chamber – Andrew Murray

The inner chamber – Andrew Murray

Nowhere can we get to know the holiness of God, and come under His influence and power, except in the inner chamber. It has been well said: “No man can expect to make progress in holiness who is not often and long alone with God.”

Discounting the Cross – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Discounting the Cross – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

It is not surprising that the cross has been discounted by modern theologians; it is because they have started with the love of God without His holiness.

I’m against sin – Billy Sunday

I’m against sin – Billy Sunday

Listen, I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist, I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head, and I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old, fistless, footless, and toothless, I’ll gum it till I go home to glory and it goes home to perdition.

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The first and great work of a Christian is about his heart. There it is that God dwells by His Spirit, in His saints; and there it is that sin and Satan reign, in the ungodly. The great duties and the great sins are those of the heart. There is the root of good and evil: the tongue and life are but the fruits and expressions of that which dwells within.
