When the depths are upheld by the Holy Spirit, then the reaction is Christian. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
Victorious living does not mean freedom from temptation, nor does it mean freedom from mistakes. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
The action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
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. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
In conversion you are not attached primarily to an order, nor to an institution, nor a movement, nor a set of beliefs, nor a code of action – you are attached primarily to a Person, and secondarily to these other things. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
Character is supreme in life, hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing – so supreme that, 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. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
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. E. Stanley Jones Read Quote
