"Preaching truth without the anointing of the Holy Ghost is helping
the devil to damn souls. There's nothing on earth today so
deadening as preaching without heaven's anointing. Refrain from
preaching unless you know that the dew of heaven is on your soul."
-- Duncan Campbell
"Lastly--are not the Church in their present state, a standing,
public, perpetual denial of the gospel? Do they not stand out before
the world, as a living, unanswerable contradiction of the gospel;
and do more to harden sinners and lead them into a spirit of
caviling and infidelity, than all the efforts of professed infidels from
the beginning of the world to the present day?" --Charles Finney
"Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your
conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off the relish
for spiritual things then it is sin for you, however, innocent it may
be in itself." -- Suzanna Wesley
"Cowards never won heaven. Do not claim that you are begotten of
God and have His royal blood running in your veins unless you can
prove your lineage by this heroic spirit: to dare to be holy in spite
of men and devils." -- William Gurnall
"Christians don't tell lies - they just go to church and sing them."
--A.W. Tozer
"Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable
sinning is not biblical grace. God's grace never encourages us to
live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and
yes to truth." -- Randy Alcorn
"It is perilously easy to have amazing sympathy with God's truth
and remain in sin." -- Oswald Chambers
"The vague and tenuous hope that God is too kind to punish the
ungodly has become a deadly opiate for the consciences of
millions." -- A.W. Tozer
"Get rid of this bunkum about the 'carnal Christian'. Forget it! If
you're carnal, you're not saved." -- Leonard Ravenhill
"An unholy church! it is useless to the world, and of no esteem
among men. It is an abomination, hell’s laughter, heaven’s
abhorrence. The worst evils which have ever come upon the world
have been brought upon her by an unholy church." -C.H. Spurgeon
“I am not afraid that the people called Methodists should ever
cease to exist either in Europe or America. But I am afraid lest
they should only exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion
without the power. And this undoubtedly will be the case unless
they hold fast both the doctrine, spirit, and discipline with which
they first set out.” -- John Wesley
“When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into
my heart.” -- John Wesley.
