Someday you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don't you believe a word of it. At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now. I was born of the flesh in 1837, I was born of the spirit in 1855. That which is born of the flesh may die. That which is born of the Spirit shall live forever.
Character is what you are in the dark.
A good example is far better than a good precept.
A rule I have had for years is: to treat the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal friend. His is not a creed, a mere doctrine, but it is He Himself we have.
I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man.
Never think that Jesus commanded a trifle, nor dare to trifle with anything He has commanded.
There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.
The difference between listening to a radio sermon and going to church...is almost like the difference between calling your girl on the phone and spending an evening with her.
Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of rich, healthy blood to a sick man.
Either these [unsaved] people are to be evangelized, or the leaven of communism and infidelity will assume such enormous proportions that it will break you in a reign of terror such as this country has never known.
Death may be the King of terrors... but Jesus is the King of kings!
God doesn't seek for golden vessels, and does not ask for silver ones, but He must have clean ones.
By the grace of God, I'll be that man.
Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me.
Faith makes all things possible... love makes all things easy.
It is a masterpiece of the devil to make us believe that children cannot understand religion. Would Christ have made a child the standard of faith if He had known that it was not capable of understanding His words?
A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian... and most of all, his family ought to know.
We talk about heaven being so far away. It is within speaking distance to those who belong there. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people.
No man can resolve himself into Heaven.
We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.
God never made a promise that was too good to be true.
Give me a man who says, This one thing I do, and not, These fifty things, I dabble in.
If I take care of my character, my reputation will take care of me.
