"Oh, the lives eternally wrecked by the yellow gospels of the day - the bloodless theories of unregenerate men that send their hearers to their doom instead of stopping them on their downward road!"

"And what is wrong with the old method of scaring the ungodly with a sermon on hell?" - Vance Havner

"There is a lot of soft, sentimental talk about Him today that brings no conviction. When Isaiah saw the Lord, he did not feel comfortable!  Neither did Habakkuk nor Daniel nor Paul nor John.  We want a picture of Him today that does not disturb us, that smiles at sin, and winks at iniquity. 

I remember a man who told me he wanted to

Yet the poor man did not seem to realize that the meek and lowly Jesus said more about hell than is reported from the lips of anyone else in the Bible! 

We need a true and complete vision of God in
His holiness and Christ in His glory that will bring us to repentance."
- Vance Havner.

"Obedience is the crown and honour of all virtue."
- Martin Luther

"Spiritual maturity is reached when obedience [to God and His word] becomes a joy."

Today pastors pray for 10 minutes then preach for 10 days and wonder why no-one is saved."

"26  Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
27  Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
29  And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 
30  And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell."
