“The greatest manifestation of its power is seen in human nature brought to the perfection of the character of Christ” (Page 16)
“Christ was opening to them the spiritual kingdom of His love, His grace, His righteousness.” (Page 9)
“There has been so little self-denial, so little suffering for Christ’s sake, that the cross is almost entirely forgotten” (Page 90)
“All who have a sense of their deep soul poverty, who feel that they have nothing good in themselves, may find righteousness and strength by looking unto Jesus.… He bids you exchange your poverty for the riches of His grace. We are not worthy of God’s love, but Christ, our surety, is worthy, and is abundantly able to save all who shall come unto Him. Whatever may have been your past experience, however discouraging your present circumstances, if you will come to Jesus just as you are, weak, helpless, and despairing, our compassionate Saviour will meet you a great way off, and will throw about you His arms of love and His robe of righteousness.” (Page 9)
“Jesus does not release us from the necessity of effort, but He teaches that we are to make Him first and last and best in everything. We are to engage in no business, follow no pursuit, seek no pleasure, that would hinder the outworking of His righteousness in our character and life. Whatever we do is to be done heartily, as unto the Lord.” (Page 21)
