sin forts made
To be tempted is not to sin. The strongest attacks are made on the strongest forts.
inspiring prayer men
A man who prays much in private will make short prayers in public.
kindness winning numbers
If we do not commend the Gospel to people by our holy walk and conversation, we shall not win them to Christ. Some little act of kindness will perhaps do more to influence them than any number of long sermons.
training temperance
Temperance is love in training.
men law calvary
The Law can only chase a man to Calvary, no further.
prayer world littles
The world knows little of the works wrought by prayer.
mother children prayer
Sometimes when your child talks, your friends cannot understand what he says; but the mother understands very well. So if our prayer comes from the heart, God understands our language.
baseball believe heart
I believe the religion of Christ covers the whole man. Why shouldn't a man play baseball or lawn-tennis? ... Don't imagine that you have got to go into a cave to be consecrated, and stay there all your life. Whatever you take up, take it up with all your heart.
heart oil-and-water two
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.
christian heart winning
If you do not feel a fervent love and profound pity for humanity, be assured that the gift of Christian eloquence has been denied you. You will not win souls, neither will you acquire that most excellent of earthly sovereignties - sovereignty over human hearts....Love is irresistible.
christian water ships
A Christian in the world is one thing, and the world in a Christian is quite another thing. A ship in the water is all right, but when the water gets in the ship, it is quite a different thing.
heart long religion
My heart goes out to you, and I long to see you all coming constantly to God for a fresh supply of love.
men giving fifty
Give me a man who says this one thing I do, and not those fifty things I dabble in.
jesus easter lying
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.
