“… who postpones the small thing near him to the great farther from him, is not of the truth.”

“How to Read the Epistles

The uncertainty lies always in the intellectual region, never in the practical. What Paul cares about is plain enough to the true heart, however far from plain to the man whose desire to understand goes ahead of his obe-dience.”

“There is no halfway house of rest, where ungodliness may be dallied with, nor prove quite fatal…there can be no deliverance for human soul, but in paying the last farthing, in becoming lowly, penitent, self-refusing — so receiving the sonship and learning to cry, ‘Father!’”

“No gift unrecognized as coming from God is at its own best: therefore many things that God would gladly give us, things even that we need, must wait until we ask for them, that we may know whence they come: when in all gifts we find Him, then in Him we shall find all things.”

“Had he done as the Master told him, he would soon have come to understand. Obedience is the opener of eyes.”
