men heaven soul
As a dead man cannot inherit an estate, no more can a dead soul inherit heaven. The soul must be resurrected in Christ.
strong character humility
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.
looks matter sin
My friends, look to Christ, and not to yourselves. That is what is the matter with a great many sinners; instead of looking to Christ, they are looking at the bite of sin.
believe heart ambition
I firmly believe that the moment our hearts are emptied of pride and selfishness and ambition and self-seeking and every thing that is contrary to God's law, the Holy Ghost will come and fill every corner of our hearts; but if we are full of pride and conceit and ambition and self-seeking and pleasure and the world, there is no room for the Spirit of God; and I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him when he is full already with something else.
powerful men ifs
When a man has no strength, if he leans on God, he becomes powerful.
prayer men heaven
How far away is Heaven? It is not so far as some imagine. It wasn't very far from Daniel. It was not so far off that Elijah's prayer and those of others could not be heard there. Men full of the Spirit can look right into heaven.
heart men christ
No man ever sought Christ with a heart to find Him who did not find Him.
saving lasts thieves
The last business of Christ's life was the saving of a poor penitent thief.
giving inspire good-man
The Spirit of God first imparts love; He next inspires hope, and then gives liberty; and that is about the last thing we have in a good many of our churches at the present time.
privilege saved knows
It is our privilege to know that we are saved.
may able great-things
We may not be able to do any great thing; but if each of us will do something, however small it may be, a good deal will be accomplised for God.
heaven way kingdoms
If you don't enter the kingdom of heaven by God's way, you cannot enter at all.
enemy nehemiah bitter
Every true work of God has had its bitter enemies - not only outside, but also inside - just as in the days of Nehemiah.
son men body
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.
