There is no justification without sanctification, no forgiveness without renewal of life, no real faith from which the fruits of new obedience do not grow.

There’s going to be no renewal, no revival, no awakening, until we’re willing to let Him once again break us.

Repentance – Paris Reidhead
A person repents when he comes to the place where he discovers that the will of God is the government of his life and the glory of God is the reason for his life. He only has repented who has changed his mind about his reason for being.

Eternity Meant Everything – Oswald J. Smith
In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by the wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to save their souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and that nothing else in life mattered but to get right with God. … To them eternity meant everything. Nothing else was of any consequence. They felt that if God did not have mercy on them and save them, they were doomed for all time to come.
– Oswald J. Smith –
Teach The Old-Fashioned Gospel – Catherine Booth
We teach the old-fashioned Gospel of repentance, faith, and holiness, not daring to separate what God has joined together…We teach that a man cannot be right with God while he is doing wrong to men – in short, that holiness means being saved from sin …and filled with love to God and man.

Knowledge Without Repentance – Thomas Watson
Some bless themselves that they have a stock of knowledge, but what is knowledge good for without repentance? It is better to mortify one sin than to understand all mysteries.

Watch the kind of people that God brings around you, and you will be humiliated to find that this is His way of reviewing to you the kind of person you have been to Him.

When it Comes Time to Die – Jim Elliot
