Sometimes, there is a prejudice against older books. But not at our house.
So in the interest and support of older books here are some great quotes to inspire and hopefully, “motivate you to love and good deeds” (Hebrews 10:24)
Newness of Life
“. . . but I saw that walking in the light, means an altogether new sensitiveness to sin, a calling things by their proper name of sin, such as pride, hardness, doubt, fear, self-pity which are often passed over as merely human reaction. It means a readiness to ‘break’ and confess at the feet of Him who was broken for us, for the Blood does not cleanse excuses, but always cleanses sin, confessed as sin, then revival is just the daily experience of a soul full of Jesus and running over.”
The Calvary Road, p. 5-6
(first published in 1950)“We do not lose peace with God over another person’s sin, but only over our own. God want to show us our reactions, and only when we are willing to be cleansed there, will we have His peace.”
The Calvary Road, p. 20
Let this One Settle in Your Spirit for Awhile
“As Christians, our function is to give flavor to the earth. The one who enjoys this flavor is God.”
Shaping History Through Prayer and Fasting, p. 13
(first published in 1973)
Older books are often gems. Check out a mom and pop bookstore that sells old, out of print books. You will be pleasantly surprised what you can find.

good quotes! Some of the older books are actually one of the best! And this is coming from someone under 40 years old! 🙂
