The importance of thinking – Ichabod Spencer

The importance of thinking – Ichabod Spencer

Thoughtlessness is the common origin of unconcern. We do a far better office for men when we lead them to think, than when we think for them. A man’s own thoughts are the most powerful of all preaching. The Holy Spirit operates very much by leading men to reflection—to employ their own mind. I should hesitate to interrupt the religious reflections of any man in the world, by the most important thing I could say to him. If I am sure he will think, I will consent to be still. But men are prone to be thoughtless, and we must speak to them to lead them to reflection.

Seeking God’s Mind – Watchman Nee

[Don’t] spend more time in analyzing, in collecting materials, and in hard thinking than on prayer, on seeking God’s mind, and on waiting for the power from above.

Treasures of Wisdom – HB Charles Jr.

The treasures of wisdom and knowledge that are found only in Christ have been cashed in for the worthless trinkets of sinful folly. Many are playing marbles with diamonds.

Understand who Jesus Christ is: to know Him is to love Him, to love Him is to trust Him; and to trust Him is to be radically, dramatically, and eternally transformed.
