Less Controversy-More of Christ

We need far less controversy, and far more presentation of Christ. Our Redeemer is the center of all our faith and hope. Those who can present His matchless love, and inspire hearts to give Him their best and holiest affections, are doing work that is great and holy.—The Colporteur Evangelist, 60, 61 (1902).

The many argumentative sermons preached seldom soften and subdue the soul.—Letter 15, 1892.

The omnipotent power of the Holy Spirit is the defense of every soul who surrenders to Jesus. Christ will not permit to pass under the enemy’s power anyone who in penitence and faith has claimed His protection. It is true that Satan is a powerful being, but, thank God, we have a mighty Savior who expelled the evil one from heaven.

Satan is pleased when we magnify his power. Why not talk of Jesus? Why not magnify His power and His love? .— Ministry of Health and Healing 43
