“Whatever Doesn’t Kill Me Will Only Make Me Stronger”
What cannot be cured must be endured is paganism. It is wonderful that paganism ever climbed to that height. It is a great attitude, it is heroic up to a certain point, but it is not Christianity. Christianity does not say what cannot be cured must be endured, it says, rather, These things must be endured because they are part of the cure. These things are to be cheerfully borne because they have the strange and mystic power to make whole and strong, and so lead to victory and the final glory. Christianity is never the dour pessimism which submits. Christianity is the cheerful optimism which cooperates with the process, because it sees through suffering and weakness, joy and strength come.
Hearing the Voice of Christ
Unless as a result of your study of the Bible you hear the imperial tone, the voice of the living Christ talking in your inmost soul, your Bible knowledge is a mere technique that will burn and ruin you…. No man or woman, young man or young woman, youth or maiden, will cultivate the habit of waiting to listen for the direct message of Christ and be disappointed. Then your Bible will be a new book.
All Talk and No Action
The man who nurses his orthodoxy, and does nothing for God, is a liar and a hypocrite.
The Deepest Passion of Jesus’ Heart
The deepest passion of the heart of Jesus was not the saving of men, but the glory of God; and then the saving of men, because that is for the glory of God.
Sorrow Is a Minister
Sorrow is a minister, creating character for those who dwell in the Will of God; for such, sorrow is turned into joy.
Every Man Needs a God
Every man needs a god. There is no man who has not, somewhere in his heart, in his life, in the essentials of his being, a shrine in which is a deity whom he worships.
Worship and Service
Worship consists in putting God at the centre of life, and service in seeing to it that all the life is centered on Him.
