Top Highlights

“We have learned so many things as Christians which are wrong, which now have to be laid aside, with the Truth taking their place. The Holy Spirit will first of all begin with the object of your Faith. If that is wrong, then everything else will be wrong as well.” (Page 610)

“ If the tongue can be tamed, everything else about our person can be brought into line as well.” (Page 137)

“The Cross of Christ, and I should say Faith in the Cross, stabilizes the Christian. In fact, it is the only sure anchor in the world, and because it is the great Sacrifice of Christ.” (Page 50)

“Faith produces and love governs. It is the nature of God. Faith is God’s gift and, therefore, it is not added to anything. It is the source out of which all virtues spring, and love is the point to which all virtues move. Hence ‘whatsoever is not of faith is sin’ (Rom. 14:23); and ‘the end of the Commandment is Love’ (I Tim. 1:5).” (Page 607)

“This tells us, that by God requiring that we deny and mortify our resentful feelings, and even submit to unavenged wrong, that we are to be ultimate winners. God’s eye is upon us, and He will rectify the situation in His time. However, that is to be left totally up to Him, with us taking no thought in the matter.” (Page 435)
