bible christian wise
Every type of destruction that human philosophy, human science, human reason, human art, human cunning, human force, and human brutality could bring to bear against this Book, and yet the Bible stands absolutely unshaken today. At times almost all the wise and great of the earth have been pitted against the Bible, and only an obscure few for it. Yet it has stood.
bible christian wise
The truly wise man is he who always believes the Bible against the opinions of any man.
wise lying book
The truly wise man is he who believes the Bible against the opinions of any man. If the Bible says one thing, and any body of men says another, the wise man will decide, "This book is the Word of him who cannot lie".
wise biblical thinking
If we think of the Holy Spirit only as an impersonal power or influence, then our thought will constantly be, how can I get hold of and use the Holy Spirit; but if we think of Him in the biblical way as a divine Person, infinitely wise, infinitely holy, infinitely tender, then our thought will constantly be, 'How can the Holy Spirit get hold of and use me?'
honor wealth sin
Wealth, honors, pleasures, is not so eagerly to be desired as the forgiveness of our sins.
christian religion spirit
To have as one's ever-present friend, and to be conscious that one has as his ever-present friend, the Holy Spirit and to surrender one's life in all it's departments entirely to His control - this is true Christian living.
christian ninety-nine might
Ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are merely playing at Bible study; and therefore ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are mere weaklings, when they might be giants, both in their Christian life and in their service.
jesus book hands
The best book in the world to put into the hands of one who desires to know about Jesus and to be saved is the gospel of John.
christian hands use
If you and I are to be used in our sphere as D.L. Moody was used in his, we must put all that we have and all that we are in the hands of God, for Him to use as He will.
jesus blessing grieving
The failure to return thanks for definite blessings received is a manifestation of ingratitude that grieves Jesus Christ.
christian littles deals
If you make a great deal of Christ, He will make a great deal of you; but if you make but a little of Christ, Christ will make but a little of you.
heaven hell company
I would rather go to heaven alone than go to hell in company.
way doctrine christianity
If you in any way abate the doctrine of hell, it will abate your zeal.
encouragement religious doe
It is true that He does sometimes require of us things that to others seem hard. But when the will is once surrendered, the revolutionized life plans become just the plans that are most pleasant, and the things that to others seem hard, are just the things that are easiest and most delightful. Do not let Satan deceive you into being afraid of God's plans for your life.
