"I care not where I go, or how I live, or what I endure so that I may save souls. When I sleep I dream of them; when I awake they are first in my thoughts…no amount of scholastic attainment, of able and profound exposition of brilliant and stirring eloquence can atone for the absence of a deep impassioned sympathetic love for human souls."
David Brainerd

"Evangelism is not a professional job for a few trained men, but is instead the unrelenting responsibility of every person who belongs to the company of Jesus."

"Lord, make me a crisis man. Let me not be a mile-post on a single road, but make me a fork that men must turn one way or another in facing Christ in me."
Elliot, Jim

"When you have no helpers, see your helpers in God. When you have many helpers, see God in all your helpers. When you have nothing but God, see all in God. When you have everything, see God in everything. Under all conditions, stay thy heart only on the Lord."
Spurgeon, Charles
|
"Night and day I pondered until I saw the connection between the justice of God and the statement that 'the just shall live by his faith.' Then I grasped that the justice of God is that righteousness by which through grace and sheer mercy God justifies us through faith. Thereupon I felt myself to be reborn and to have gone through open doors into paradise."
Luther, Martin

"The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian."
Tozer, A.W.

"Upon a life I did not live, upon a death I did not die; another’s life, another’s death, I stake my whole eternity."
Bonar, Horatius

"To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing."
Luther, Martin
|
While we may not be called to martyr our lives, we must martyr our way of life. We must put our selfish ways to death and march to a different beat. Then the world will see Jesus.
Tait, Michael

As a boy I toted two buckets of water, one balancing the other, Grace works the same way People see our 'Bucket of Troubles' easy enough. What they don't see is the 'Bucket of Grace' that balances out the Bucket of Troubles.

The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, and prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.
Tozer, A.W.

" As soon as anything becomes autonomous from God, Then nature eats up grace."
Schaeffer, Francis

Wives submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
The apostle Paul, speaking for God. Eph.5:22

"Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all."
Moody, D.L.

"In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart."
