keys mind obedience
The KEY to disciplining ourselves in the area of obedience is always keeping in mind to whom we are being obedient.
compromise obedience our-relationship
True obedience is the refusal to compromise in any regard our relationship with God, regardless of the consequences.
prayer obedience substitutes
Prayer will become effective when we stop using it as a substitute for obedience.
trying have-faith obedience
If we try to obey without faith, we get nowhere. If we try to have faith without obedience, it ends in nothing.
opposites errors obedience
To escape the error of salvation by works we have fallen into the opposite error of salvation without obedience.
god christian religious
Christians should be the boldest people in the world-not cocky and sure of ourselves, but sure of Him.
letting-go ifs
It is God who works in and through us, if only we would let God do His work.
prayer expectations praying
To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.
hands church months
I remind you that there are churches so completely out of the hands of God that if the Holy Spirit withdrew from them, they wouldn't find it out for many months
men play laughing
Man appears for a little while to laugh and weep, to work and play, and then to go to make room for those who shall follow him in the never-ending cycle.
eye profound saint
God will not hold us responsible to understand the mysteries of election, predestination, and the divine sovereignty. The best and safest way to deal with these truths is to raise our eyes to God and in deepest reverence say, "0 Lord, Thou knowest." Those things belong to the deep and mysterious Profound of God's omniscience. Prying into them may make theologians, but it will never make saints.
real blessed eye
Like the eye which sees everything in front of it and never sees itself, faith is occupied with the Object upon which it rests and pays no attention to itself at all. While we are looking at God, we do not see ourselves - blessed riddance. The man who has struggled to purify himself and has had nothing but repeated failures will experience real relief when he stops tinkering with his soul and looks away to the perfect One.
ends
God and I; here is the beginning and the end of personal religion.
god hands idols
If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts; and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.
