“The Christian should stand out like a sparkling diamond against a rough background. He should be more wholesome than anyone else.

He should laugh and be radiant, but he should refuse to allow the world to pull him down to its level.”

even in a hard place.”

“The secret of the power of Christianity is not in its ethics. It is not in Christian ideas or philosophy . . .the secret of Christianity is found . . . in the Lord Jesus Christ.

“Sometimes it is difficult to differentiate the Christian from the man of the world. In America, for example, churchgoing has become popular, but churchgoing may not necessarily be accompanied by genuine depth in prayer and Bible study or a change in lifestyle.”
