Quotes

  • The best evidence of the Bible's being the word of God is to be found between its covers. It proves itself.
  • There is more of power to sanctify, elevate, strengthen, and cheer in the word Jesus (Jehovah-Saviour) than in all the utterances of man since the world began.
  • The Spirit never makes men the instruments of converting others until they feel that they cannot do it themselves; that their skill in argument, in persuasion, in management, avails nothing.
  • Its very essence is trust upon Him and His sin-expiating and life-purchasing merits. Its very essence consists in its self-emptying, self-denying, Christ-grasping energy.
  • The doctrines of grace humble man without degrading him and exalt him without inflating him.
