"Quotable Quotes"

Conscience, Holy Spirit, and Believers

2/24/2018

 
"Young Christians who follow the Lord wholeheartedly obey Him at many points, for their conscience is sensitive and easily moved by the Holy Spirit."

"Old believers, on the other hand, have so much knowledge that they tend to overlap their mind so as to numb the sensitivity of the conscience. They are tempted to do things according to the knowledge of their mind and seemingly render themselves immovable by the Holy Spirit."

- - Watchman Nee, in The Spiritual Man , Vol. 2

Voice In Your Heart

6/9/2016

 
"Always make sure the Voice in your heart is God's, not your own"
- Margaret Campbell, in "Wrestling with God", film about the life of Alexander Campbell

Preaching and Holy Spirit

2/16/2016

 
“The anointing of the Holy Spirit helps me greatly when I preach.  I would never attempt to teach the truth of God by my own power.”

- G. Muller, in “The Autobiography of George Muller”

God's Word and the Holy Spirit

2/16/2016

 
“The Word can be explained only by the Holy Spirit, who is the teacher of His people.  The Holy Spirit alone can teach us about our sinful state, show us the need of a Savior, enable us to believe in Christ, explain the Scriptures to us, and help us preach the Word.”

- G. Muller, in “The Autobiography of George Muller”

Spiritual Leader is a Worker

2/10/2016

 
“The spiritual leader of today is the one who gladly works as an assistant and associate, humbly helping another achieve great things.”

“A true leader influences others spiritually only because the Spirit works in and through him to a greater degree than in those he leads.”

-  J.O. Sanders, in “Spiritual Leadership”

Spiritual Leaders and the Holy Spirit

2/10/2016

 
"Spiritual leaders should know the experience of praying in the Spirit as part of their daily walk.”

“Spiritual leaders of every generation will have a consuming passion to know the Word of God through diligent study and the illumination of the Holy Spirit.”

“When such people learn to rely not on their own power and wisdom, but to depend on God, there is no limit to their usefulness in God’s service.”    

- “Spiritual leadership requires Spirit-filled people. Other qualifications are important; to be Spirit-filled is indispensable.”

- J.O. Sanders, in “Spiritual Leadership”

Be Filled With The Spirit

12/28/2015

 
"To be filled with the Spirit means simply that the Christian voluntarily surrenders life.  Through faith, the believer's personality is filled, mastered, and controlled, by the Spirit. ... "take[s] possession of the mind."

"To be filled with the Spirit is to be controlled by the Spirit.  The Christian leader's mind, emotions; will and physical strength all become available for the Spirit to guide and use. ... "All real Christian service is but the expression of the Spirit's power through believers yielded to Him (John 7:37-39).

- J. O. Sanders, in "Spiritual Leadership"

The Spirit and Leadership

12/28/2015

 
... " appointing leaders with a secular or materialistic outlook prevents the Holy Spirit from making spiritual progress in that place."

"The Holy Spirit does not take control of anyone against his or her will.  When people who lack spiritual fitness to cooperate with Him are elected to leadership positions, He quietly withdraws and leaves them to implement their own policies according to their own standards, but without His aid.  The inevitable result is an unspiritual administration."

- J. O. Sanders, in "Spiritual Leadership"

Teacher of the Bible

10/9/2015

 
... "God showed me that His Word alone is our standard of judgement in spiritual things.  The Word can be explained only by the Holy Spirit who is the teacher of His people."

-- George Muller, in "The Autobiography of George Muller"

Holy Spirit: Reborn and Baptism

8/11/2015

 
"A man may be reborn by the Holy Spirit and still not be baptized with the Holy Spirit.  In being reborn, there is the impartation of life by the Spirit's power, and the one who receives it is saved.  In the baptism with the Holy Spirit, there is the impartation of power, and the one who receives it is fitted for service."

--- R. A. Torrey, in "The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit"
