"Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus."
Character
"Prayer means that the total you is praying. Your whole being reaches out to God, and God reaches down to you."
God
"In the ordinary church, it is suppressed by respectability, by a desire to appear better than we really are."
Church
"God, to redeem us at the deepest portion of our nature - the urge to love and be loved - must reveal His nature in an incredible and impossible way. He must reveal it at a cross."
Love
"Victorious living does not mean freedom from temptation, nor does it mean freedom from mistakes."
Freedom
"Prayer is commitment. We don't merely co-operate with God with certain things held back within. We, the total person, co-operate. This means that co-operation equals committment."
God
"Here he tells us that the new birth is first of all 'not of blood'. You don't get it through the blood stream, through heredity. Your parents can give you much, but they cannot give you this."
Blood
"You cease to move into yourself, away from others. You give up your antagonism. You begin to move toward others in love. God moved toward you in gracious, outgoing love, and you move toward others in that same outgoing love."
Love
"Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake - a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention."
Intelligence
"When we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code, but a character."
