"Each human being is a totality of the human life."

"Patience is not passivity; it is aggressiveness without anxiety."

"Whether a matter is great or small, its importance and weight depend on whose hands it is in."

"Faults invariably exist among the good, and merit among faults."

"Never neglect your daily living, for it builds up your habits."

"Being slow means not acting when there is time to act, whereas being stable means allowing time to do its work."

"The highest morality is one in which divinity is added to our humanity. This is the divine attributes of God expressed in the created virtues of man."

"Holiness is the manner of this life that enjoys the divine nature to the uttermost."

"God is embodied and expressed in Christ (John 1:1, 14; 1 Tim. 3:16; Col. 2:9), and Christ is realized and experienced as the Spirit (John 14:16-17; 1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 3:17; Rom. 8:10; Phil. 1:19). The Spirit is the very constituent of the church which is the Body of Christ, His fullness (Eph. 1:22-23; 1 Cor. 12:12). Now the Body of Christ is expressed in all the local churches, for the local churches are the expressions of the universal church (1:11-12). The local churches are the expression of the Body, the Body is the realization of Christ as the life-giving Spirit, and Christ is the embodiment of God."

"The second generation did not pass through as much as the first generation did, but they received the benefit of what the first generation experienced."

"The more spiritual we become, the more normal and human we will be."

"Some have criticized Paul for not trying to reform the social system. We realize, however, that Paul used the worst social system as an opportunity to charge the believers to live a Jesusly human life in the midst of it. If the saints could live such a human life in the worst social system imaginable, then we should be able to live such a life in any kind of circumstances today. (...) by the divine life we can have the highest human living even in the worst social system!"
