CONSECRATION
Give your second best never. AM393
Let me be as the bullock which stands between the plough and the altar, to work or
to be sacrificed; and let my motto be, “Ready for either.” ME14
Jesus gave both his hands to the nails, how can I keep back one of mine from His
blessed work? ME529
You must have no co-ordinate or even secondary object or divided aim: if you do
divide your heart, your life will be a failure. WCo75
Could our zeal know no respite, could our prayers know no pause, could our efforts

When a man yields himself to Jesus he should comprehend his house, his money, his
body, his time, his wife, his children,—everything in the deed of surrender; for he
who bought us with his precious blood did not buy us with a reserve and leave the
devil a mortgage upon us, but we are the Lord’s unencumbered freehold for ever. 1473.274

much to be secular. A Christian’s whole life is to be his religion, and his religion is to
saturate his whole life. 1473.274
Be half a Christian, and you shall have enough religion to make you miserable; be
wholly a Christian, and your joy shall be full. 1854.443
Surely you have some natural faculty or acquired skill which you can lay at his feet. 2017.202
