'faith Cometh By Hearing And Hearing By The Word Of God' (rom. 10:17). That Is Whence Faith Comes. It Is Not For Me To Sit Down And Wait For Faith To Come Stealing Over Me With A Strong Sensation, But Is For Me To Take God At His Word.

A Good Many Preachers Say I Am Lowering The Pulpit. I Am Glad I Am. I Am Trying To Get It Down To The Level Of Men's Hearts. If I Wanted To Hit Chicago I Would Not Put The Cannon On The Top Of This Building And Fire Into The Air. Too Many Preachers Fire Into The Air.

The Best Definition I Can Find Of Faith Is The Dependence Upon The Veracity Of Another. The Bible Definition In The 11th Chapter Of Hebrews Is, 'faith Is The Substance Of Things Hoped For, The Evidence Of Things Not Seen.' In Other Words, Faith Says Amen To Everything That God Says. Faith Takes God Without Any Ifs, If God Says It, Faith Says I Believe It; Faith Says Amen To It.

I Believe This Is A Mistake A Great Many Of Us Are Making; We Are Trying To Do God's Work With The Grace God Gave Us Ten Years Ago. We Say, If It Is Necessary, We Will Go On With The Same Grace. Now, What We Want Is A Fresh Supply, A Fresh Anointing And Fresh Power, And If We Seek It, And Seek It With All Our Hearts, We Will Obtain It.

Temptations Are Like Tramps. Treat Them Kindly, And They Will Return Bringing Others With Them. Temptations Are Never So Dangerous As When They Come To Us In A Religious Garb.

The Resurrection Is The Keystone Of The Arch On Which Our Faith Is Supported. If Christ Has Not Risen, We Must Impeach All Those Witnesses For Lying. If Christ Has Not Risen, We Have No Proof That The Crucifixion Of Jesus Differed From That Of The Two Thieves Who Suffered With Him. If Christ Has Not Risen, It Is Impossible To Believe His Atoning Death Was Accepted.

God Has Called Us To Shine, Just As Much As Daniel Was Sent Into Babylon To Shine. Let No One Say That He Cannot Shine Because He Has Not So Much Influence As Some Others May Have.

And Are There None Whom You Promised Once To Meet Again, If Not On Earth, In Heaven?

In Proverbs We Read: 'he That Winneth Souls Is Wise.' If Any Man, Women, Or Child By A Godly Life And Example Can Win One Soul To God, His Life Will Not Have Been A Failure.

I Never Knew Up To That Time That God Loved Us So Much. This Heart Of Mine Began To Thaw Out; I Could Not Keep Back The Tears. I Just Drank It In...i Tell You There Is One Thing That Draws Above Everything Else In The World And That Is Love.

God Will Not Accept A Divided Heart. He Must Be Absolute Monarch. There Is Not Room In Your Heart For Two Thrones. You Cannot Mix The Worship Of The True God With The Worship Of Any Other God More Than You Can Mix Oil And Water. It Cannot Be Done. There Is Not Room For Any Other Throne In The Heart If Christ Is There. If Worldliness Should Come In, Godliness Would Go Out.

Christ Came Down To Save Us From A Terrible Hell, And Any Man Who Is Cast Down To Hell From Here Must Go In The Full Blaze Of The Gospel, And Over The Mangled Body Of The Son Of God.

I Never Saw A Useful Christian Who Was Not A Student Of The Bible. If A Man Neglects His Bible, He May Pray And Ask God To Use Him In His Work; But God Cannot Make Much Use Of Him, For There Is Not Much For The Holy Ghost To Work Upon.

Ministry Need Not Be An Office; It's A Lifestyle Devoted To Attracting The Lost To Christ And Encouraging Other Believers In The Faith.

No Matter How Low Down You Are; No Matter What Your Disposition Has Been; You May Be Low In Your Thoughts, Words, And Actions; You May Be Selfish; Your Heart May Be Overflowing With Corruption And Wickedness; Yet Jesus Will Have Compassion Upon You. He Will Speak Comforting Words To You; Not Treat You Coldly Or Spurn You, As Perhaps Those Of Earth Would, But Will Speak Tender Words, And Words Of Love And Affection And Kindness. Just Come At Once. He Is A Faithful Friend - A Friend That Sticketh Closer Than A Brother.

When I First Became A Christian I Thought I Would Be Glad When I Got Farther On, And Got Established. I Thought I Would Be So Strong And There Would Not Be Any Danger; But The Longer I Live, The More Danger I See There Is. The Only Hope Of Any Christian...is To Keep Hold Of Christ.

Some Day You Will Read In The Papers That D.l. Moody Of East Northfield, Is Dead. Don't You Believe A Word Of It!

I Now Opened My Bible, And Began To Study, And Faith Has Been Growing Ever Since.

Someone Has Said That There Are Four Things Necessary In Studying The Bible: Admit, Submit, Commit And Transmit.

A Man Can No More Take In A Supply Of Grace For The Future Than He Can Eat Enough Today To Last Him For The Next 6 Months, Nor Can He Inhale Sufficient Air Into His Lungs With One Breath To Sustain Life For A Week To Come. We Are Permitted To Draw Upon God's Store Of Grace From Day To Day As We Need It.

What We Want Is Men With A Little Courage To Stand Up For Christ. When Christianity Wakes Up, And Every Child That Belongs To The Lord Is Willing To Speak For Him, Is Willing To Work For Him, And, If Need Be, Willing To Die For Him, Then Christianity Will Advance, And We Shall See The Work Of The Lord Prosper.

I Went To Preaching Again. The Sermons Were Not Different; I Did Not Present Any New Truths, And Yet Hundreds Were Converted. I Would Not Now Be Placed Back Where I Was Before That Blessed Experience If You Should Give Me All The World - It Would Be As Dust In The Balance.

The Son Of God Passed By The Mansions And Went Down In A Manger That He Might Sympathize With The Lowly.

If You Were To Spend A Month Feeding On The Precious Promises Of God, You Would Not Be Going About With Your Heads Hanging Down Like Bulrushes, Complaining How Poor You Are; But You Would Lift Up Your Heads With Confidence, And Proclaim The Riches Of His Grace Because You Could Not Help It.

Christians Should Live In The World, But Not Be Filled With It. A Ship Lives In The Water; But If The Water Gets Into The Ship, She Goes To The Bottom. So Christians May Live In The World; But If The World Gets Into Them, They Sink.

I Believe Many A Man Is Praying To God To Fill Him, When He Is Full Already With Something Else. Before We Pray That God Would Fill Us, I Believe We Ought To Pray Him To Empty Us.

I Now Opened My Bible And Began To Study, And Faith Has Been Growing Ever Since.

Next To The Wonder Of Seeing My Savior Will Be, I Think, The Wonder That I Made So Little Use Of The Power Of Prayer.

There Is No True Prayer Without Confession. As Long As We Have Unconfessed Sin In Our Soul, We Are Not Going To Have Power With God In Prayer. He Says If We Regard Iniquity In Our Hearts, He Will Not Hear Us, Much Less Answer. As Long As We Are Living In Any Known Sin, We Have No Power In Prayer. God Is Not Going To Hear It.

If We Do Not Love One Another, We Certainly Shall Not Have Much Power With God In Prayer.

Many Of The Bible Characters Fell Just In The Things In Which They Were Thought To Be Strongest. Moses Failed In His Humility, Abraham In His Faith, Elijah In His Courage, For One Woman Scared Him Away To That Juniper-tree; And Peter, Whose Strong Point Was Boldness, Was So Frightened By A Maid, As To Deny His Lord.

God Commands Us To Be Filled With The Spirit, And If We Are Not Filled, It Is Because We Are Living Beneath Our Privileges

The Best Way To Revive A Church Is To Build A Fire In The Pulpit.

A Great Many People Wonder Why It Was That Christ Did Not Come At Once To Martha And Mary, Whom He Loved, Whenever He Heard Of Their Affliction. It Was To Try Them, And It Is The Same With His Dealings Toward Us. If He Seems Not To Come To Us In Our Affliction, It Is Only To Test Us.

If A Man Gets Drunk And Goes Out And Breaks His Leg So That It Must Be Amputated, God Will Forgive Him If He Asks It, But He Will Have To Hop Around On One Leg All His Life.

Every One Ought To Study The Bible With Two Ends In View: His Own Growth In Knowledge And Grace, And Passing It On To Others. We Ought To Have Four Ears,- Two For Ourselves, And Two For Other People. My Bible Is Worth A Good Deal To Me Because I Have So Many Passages Marked That, If I Am Called Upon To Speak At Any Time, I Am Ready. We Ought To Be Prepared To Pass Around Heavenly Thoughts And Truths, Just As We Do The Coin Of The Realm.

Trust In Yourself And You Are Doomed To Disappointment; Trust In Money And You May Have It Taken From You, But Trust In God, And You Are Never To Be Confounded In Time Or Eternity.

Salvation Is Worth Working For. It Is Worth A Man's Going Round The World On His Hands And Knees, Climbing Its Mountains, Crossing Its Valleys, Swimming Its Rivers, Going Through All Manner Of Hardship In Order To Attain It. But We Do Not Get It In That Way. It Is To Him Who Believes.

Faith Makes All Things Possible... Love Makes All Things Easy.

Happiness Is Caused By Things That Happen Around Me, And Circumstances Will Mar It; But Joy Flows Right On Through Trouble; Joy Flows In The Night As Well As In The Day; Joy Flows Through Persecution And Opposition.
