"So much is said in the Bible about remembering, that many are in danger of losing sight of the fact that it is a duty sometimes to forget."
"One reason why so many fail to make advancement in the Christian life is because they have never learned how to forget" Ellet J. Waggoner
"People are not simply counted righteous, but actually made righteous, by the obedience of Christ, who is as righteous as He ever was, and who lives today in those who yield to Him. His ability to live in any human being is shown in the fact that he took human flesh eighteen hundred years ago. What God did in the person of the Carpenter of Nazareth, He is willing and anxious to do for every man that believes." Ellet J. Waggoner
"People sometimes say that they can believe that God forgives their sins, but they find it difficult to believe that he can keep them from sin. Well, if there is any difference, the latter is the easier of the two; for the forgiveness of sins requires the death of Christ, while the saving from sins requires only his continued life." Ellet J. Waggoner
"The Ten Commandments, whether engraved on tables of stone or written in a book, are only statements of the righteousness of God. Righteousness means right doing. It is active. The righteousness of God is God's right doing, His way. And since all His ways are right, it follows that the righteousness of God is nothing less than the life of God. The written law is not action, but only a description of the action. It is a picture of the character of God." Ellet J. Waggoner
"True faith is obedience. "This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him whom He has sent" (John 6:29)." Ellet J. Waggoner
"Faith is the breath of life to the Christian. So just as we naturally live from breath to breath, we are to live spiritually from faith to faith. We can live but one breath at a time; so we can not live spiritually except by present faith." Ellet J. Waggoner
"Christ died, but He still lives, and His life in us keeps us united to God. The imparting of His life to us frees us from sin and the continuing of it in us, keeps us from sin." Ellet J. Waggoner
"If it were true that the Spirit did testify to us, apart from the Bible, then we should have nothing but our own minds by which to determine whether or not any impression is really from the Spirit." Ellet J. Waggoner
"It took nothing less than the Divine life of Christ to meet the demands of the law. Unless one has more than this to give, he can do more than is required." ~Ellet J. Waggoner
"Conviction is showing a man that he is guilty. Condemnation is the putting of the sentence upon him. We are already under condemnation, because of transgression. "Now the Lord comes to us and convicts us by his Spirit, but when He has brought us to this place where we are convicted and acknowledge the fact that we have sinned and are worthy of death, just there the Lord comes in and takes away the condemnation. He carries us to that point, and then the sentence is remitted." Ellet J. Waggoner
