A Reduced Christ Is The Same As

God, To Redeem Us At The Deepest Portion Of Our Nature - The Urge To Love And Be Loved - Must Reveal His Nature In An Incredible And Impossible Way. He Must Reveal It At A Cross.

All Coming To Jesus Has The Feeling Of Homecoming Upon It. All Going Away From Him Has The Sense Of Estrangement Upon It. The Rich Young Ruler Went Away From Jesus "sorrowful." Everybody Does. Not Only Estrangement From God, But Also Estrangement From Oneself. And The Universe! And From Life! You Are Not At Home With Life, Unless You Are At Home With Life. And Jesus Is Life!

When Man Listens, God Speaks; When Man Obeys, God Acts; When Man Prays, God Empowers.

To Talk With God, No Breath Is Lost. Talk On! To Walk With God, No Strength Is Lost. Walk On! To Wait On God, No Time Is Lost. Wait On!

Worry And Anxiety Are Sand In The Machinery Of Life; Faith Is The Oil.
