men holiness god-love
Love for God is obedience; love for God is holiness. To love God and to love man is to be conformed to the image of Christ, and this is salvation.
mistake men thank-god
Men talk of "the mistakes of Scripture." I thank God that I have never met with any. Mistakes of translation there may be, for translators are men. But mistakes of the original word there never can be, for the God who spoke it is infallible, and so is every word he speaks, and in that confidence we find delightful rest.
christian hate godly
Satan always hates Christian fellowship; it is his policy to keep Christians apart. Anything which can divide saints from one another he delights in. He attaches far more importance to godly intercourse than we do. Since union is strength, he does his best to promote separation.
god christian religious
Far better for a man that he had never been born than that he should degrade a pulpit into a show box to exhibit himself in.
god christian spiritual
Our spiritual manhood in heaven will discard many things which we now count precious, as a full-grown man discards the treasures of his childhood.
children doe child-of-god
The child of God works not for life, but from life; he does not work to be saved, but works because he is saved
praying machinery praying-to-god
I would as soon pray to God with machinery as to sing to God with machinery.
jesus talent god-bless
It is not great talents God blesses so much as likeness to Jesus.
god christian religious
If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.
men word-of-god millions
It is better to preach five words of God’s Word than five million words of man’s wisdom.
children godly men
A godly man often grows best when his worldly circumstances decay. He who follows Christ for his bag is a Judas; they who follow for loaves and fishes are children of the devil; but they who attend Him out of love to Himself are His own beloved ones. Lord, let me find my life in Thee, and not in the mire of this world's favour or gain.
gratitude may gratitude-to-god
May gratitude to God permeate my entire life.
god christian religious
Faith is a principle which hath its root deeper than feelings. We believe, whether we see or not. We believe, whether we feel or not.
men march gods-will
God will not go forth with that man who marches in his own strength
