“Again before a man can be saved he must feel a consuming spiritual hunger” (Page 15)

“Our Lord gave us a rule by which we can test our love for Him: ‘He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.… If a man love me, he will keep my words.… He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings’ (John 14:21, 23–24).” (Page 11)

“Pietism. By this I mean an enjoyable feeling of affection for the person of our Lord that is valued for itself and is wholly unrelated to cross-bearing or the keeping of the commandments of Christ. It is entirely possible to feel for Jesus an ardent love that is not of the Holy Spirit.” (Page 10)

“In the New Testament salvation and discipleship are so closely related as to be indivisible. They are not identical, but as with Siamese twins they are joined by a tie which can be severed only at the price of death.” (Page 9)

“I believe in Christian charity, but I do not believe at all in Christian tolerance.” (Page 19)
