I have never met the man I could despair of after discerning what lies in me apart from the grace of God.

The Spirit of God brings justification with a shattering, radiant light, and I know that I am saved, even though I don't know how it was accomplished.

The grace you had yesterday will not be sufficient for today.

Paul's secret joy was that God took him as a blatant rebel against Jesus Christ, and made him a captive—and that became his purpose.

God made His own Son to be sin that He might make the sinner a saint.

The greatest need we have is not to do things, but to believe things. The redemption of Christ is not an experience, it is the great act of God which He has performed through Christ, and I have to build my faith on it.

Do we appreciate the miraculous salvation of Jesus Christ enough to be our utmost for His highest—our best for His glory?

Remember what makes prayer easy is not our wits or our understanding, but the tremendous agony of God in redemption...Prayer is not what it costs us, but what it cost God to enable us to pray.

The reason salvation is so easy to obtain is that it cost God so much. The Cross was the place where God and sinful man merged with a tremendous collision and where the way to life was opened. But all the cost and pain of the collision was absorbed by the heart of God.

I cannot enter the realm of the kingdom of God unless I am born again from above by a birth totally unlike physical birth. "You must be born again" (John 3:7).

Eternal life is not a gift from God; eternal life is the gift of God. The energy and the power which was so very evident in Jesus will be exhibited in us by an act of the absolute sovereign grace of God, once we have made that complete and effective decision about sin.

Lord, for the days of the past holiday I praise and thank Thee, for my lying fallow to Thy grace; for the many prayers that have surrounded me like an atmosphere of heaven.
