We are not only to renounce evil, but to manifest the truth. We tell people the world is vain; let our lives manifest that it is so. We tell them that our home is above and that all these things are transitory. Does our dwelling look like it? O to live consistent lives!

If in the sight of God you cannot say you are sure that you have a special call to stay at home, why are you disobeying the Saviour's plain command to go?

Too often we attempt to work for God to the limit of our incompetency, rather than to the limit of God's omnipotency.

When I get to China, I will have no claim on any one for anything. My claim will be alone in God and I must learn before I leave England to move men through God by prayer alone.

The prayer power has never been tried to its full capacity...if we want to see mighty wonders of divine power and grace wrought in the place of weakness, failure and disappointment, let us answer God's standing challenge, "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not."

I have seen many men work without praying, though I have never seen any good come out of it; but I have never seen a man pray without working.

The Great Commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to be obeyed.

[God] wants you to have something far better than riches and gold, and that is helpless dependence upon Him.

All God's giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reackoned on God being with them.
