I KNOW THAT THERE IS an intellectual element in the gospel, for one of the attributes of deity is intellect. We call this element theology or doctrine. Human thought may engage theology, and it may engage doctrine. These things are necessary and right in their place, but there must be a seeking of the heart and being which is beyond the intellect.

. . .truth, to be understood, must be lived; that Bible doctrine is wholly ineffective until it has been digested and assimilated by the total life.

YOU CAN FILL YOUR HEAD full of knowledge, but the day that you decide you are going to obey God, the knowledge will get down into your heart. You will know. Only the servants of truth can ever know truth. Only those who obey can ever have the inward change.

Theological truth is useless until it is obeyed. The purpose behind all doctrine is to secure moral action

CONSCIENCE NEVER DEALS with theories. Conscience always deals with right and wrong and the relation of the individual to that which is right or wrong.

The essence of my belief is that there is a difference, a vast difference, between fact and truth. Truth in the Scriptures is more than a fact. A fact may be detached, impersonal, cold and totally disassociated from life. Truth on the other hand, is warm, living and spiritual. A theological fact may be held in the mind for a lifetime without its having any positive effect upon the moral character; but truth is creative, saving, transforming, and it always changes the one who receives it into a humbler and holier man

Be sure you dont laugh at something that God takes seriously. Conscience is one of those things!

CONSCIENCE SINGLES YOU out as though nobody else existed.

IT TAKES MORE THAN EDUCATION to change a mans human nature. Education may bring about certain restraints and some degree of control, but just let a man act freely from within, and you will find out what he really is.

GOD HAS GIVEN US A FAITHFUL witness inside of our own being.
It is able to single a man out and reveal his loneliness, the loneliness of a single soul in the universe going on to meet an angry God. Thats the terror of the conscience.
