* Stay on the trail, don't be chasing rabbits. Let's go God's way; don't get off on tangents; don't emphasize non-essentials, don't crowd Jesus out by giving the preeminence to something else, don't stress your petty interpretations and eccentricities.
* Ask God for more grace, stickability, character, and determination.
* Move closer to Jesus, and you will quit your fussing.
* It's not how you start that's important; it's how you wind up.
* Life is not divided into the secular and the sacred. Everything that a Christian does in the name of Jesus Christ becomes a sacred, holy thing. Men are always talking about full-time Christian work; every Christian that does his duty is in full-time work.
* The devil's greatest work in this world today is in the realm of religion, not in the slums of the inner city.

* The only miracle that is essential is the miracle of regenerating grace in the heart of man.
* The greatest temptation that is ever going to come to you in this world will be the temptation to give Jesus Christ some place except His right place; you will be tempted to give Him second place, third place, or some other place. His place is always first place, highly exalted.
* The finger that points sinners to the Lamb of God will have to suffer some kind of persecution until the devil is chained in hell.
* Blessed is the man that has drive, but knows how to put on the brakes when he needs to. There isn't one good thing that couldn't become a bad thing misdirected.
* I'm only one, but I am one; I cannot do everything, but I can do something. What I can do, I ought to do, and by the grace of God I will do. I'm just one, and I'm not much; God could do much better than me, but if there's anything I can do for God, I will do it for His glory. You can be what God wants you to be. You may never make the headlines down here, but God will know all about it.

* God never creates spiritual hunger without getting bread to that man in some way or other.
* Are you a worker or a shirker? Your main business is to be a witness for Jesus Christ.
* The prayer meeting should be the most extraordinary service at the church.
* God Almighty uses the people that take up the ordinary grinding routine of life in a spiritual way.

* Never ask any question but this one - What's right?
* Man today says he is on a quest for God; but he is searching for the kind of god he wants, not for the God who is.
* You can't do right without Jesus making you right. You can't be clean with an unclean heart in your bosom.
* Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God. If your heart is right, you'll see right.
* The world wants to be better off without being better; a man can never be better off without Jesus; listen, only Jesus can make you better.
* Make Jesus welcome in your heart and home.
* The test of your character is what it takes to stop you.
* You ought to be ashamed of yourself if you're not getting out after souls and trying to win people to Jesus Christ. You ought to feel mean for not doing it.
* Enoch walked with God, God didn't walk with Enoch, go God's way.
* There's no substitute for prayer; try to put prayer in everything you do. What a privilege and honor it is for us to pray to God our Father. Prayer brings God down here where I need Him.
* Pray without ceasing, keep in touch with Jesus, don't let something get between you and God where you stop praying.
* Come clean, and be a straight shooter with God. If you can't pray over something, you better leave it alone.
* Blessed is the boy or girl that has a praying mother.
* The main contact you need is contact with Heaven.
* The tendency of most churches today is to just dig in, settle down, buy a pipe organ, get interested in themselves, and just take it easy.
* Every saved man's business and responsibility is to spread the Gospel. You should be out after souls.

* It's not the chandelier in the parlor, but it's the back hall light that is the most valuable light in the home. Be a back hall light for Jesus.
* Everybody has a god; a man can't live without a god. The thing that's first with you is your god, whatever it is. In all things Jesus Christ personally is to have the preeminence.
* It's perfectly clear in the Bible that any man that wants to be saved can be saved. If you don't want to be saved, you can go to Hell, it's up to you. Whosoever will may come; ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life.
* When you start asking why, why why, you're moving out of your realm; you are trying to fathom the Infinite. Listen, there is a quarrel between you and God, but God sent His Son down here to die for your sins, so you could be reconciled back to God. God will save anybody that wants to be saved; it's all of Grace. You can't earn mercy, and you can't pay for your salvation. If you want Jesus, take Him. There He sits on the throne of God.
* My business as a preacher is to tell you what the Bible says, and make it applicable and practical to life.
* In the Bible, God told you everything you need to know to live like you ought to live down here in this world.
