Conformed to His Image
“If it cost God Calvary to deal with sin, we have no business to make light of it.”
“Sin is not wrong-doing, it is wrong-being – deliberate and emphatic independence of God.”
“The essence of sin is my claim to my right to myself; it goes deeper than all the sins that were ever committed… The point is, am I prepared deliberately to give up my right to myself to Jesus Christ?”
“I become a ‘Bethlehem’ for the life of the Son of God.”
“Am I willing for my human nature to be sacrificed in order that the life of the Son of God is nourished in me, or do I only want Him to see me through certain difficulties?”
“…as long as man is sufficient for himself, God can do nothing for him.”
“The essence of repentance is that it destroys the lust of self-vindication; where that lust resides, that repentance is not true.”
