“This is no human thought; this did not come from the human mind; this is a revelation that came from heaven.” (Page 95)
“ Still the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church. The gospel flourishes in times of tribulation.” (Page 30)
“And then he asks that peace may be given. It is not peace with God. That they already enjoyed” (Page 12)
“It is because there are things in his life that the Bible condemns, of which he does not wish to repent. There are sins that mean more to him than Christ. He would rather indulge in them than be delivered from them. The moment a man comes to the place where he desires God’s will above all else, and says, ‘I am ready to renounce my sin, to be freed from it,’ that man will not have any trouble believing the gospel. Judge yourself in the presence of God, and you will be able to believe Him. Face your sins before God, and there will be no difficulty about believing.” (Pages 101–102)
“God uses broken men, and if men will not humble themselves before Him in order to make them vessels to carry His testimony to others, He will give them experiences to break them.” (Page 31)
