 If I cannot hear "The sound of rain' long before the rain falls, and then go out to some hilltop of the Spirit, as near to my God as I can and have faith to wait there with my face between my knees, though six times or sixty times I am told "There is nothing', till at last there arises a little cloud out of the sea, then I know nothing of Calvary love.

| As the sun can be seen only by its own light, so Christ can be known only by His own Spirit. Author: Robert Leighton |
| God the Holy Ghost calls for crusaders. How many ministers would be in church if it were not their job? The answer will be found in the number who never go to the job that is outside. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| The Church is the Body of Christ, and the Spirit is the Spirit of Christ. He fills the Body, directs its movements, controls its members, inspires its wisdom, supplies it's strength. He guides into truth, sanctifies its agents, and empowers for witnessing. The Spirit has never abdicated His authority nor relegated His power. Author: Samuel Chadwick |

| Let no man join us who is afraid, and we want none but those who are saved, sanctified and aflame with the fire of the Holy Spirit. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| The Holy Spirit cannot conquer the world with unbelief, nor can He save the world with a worldly Church. He calls for a crusade, a campaign, and an adventure of saving passion. For this enterprise He wants a separated, sanctified and sacrificial people. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| The Christian religion begins in a New Birth in the power of the Spirit. It is developed under His guidance, and sustained by His presence; but ignoring the Spirit, it becomes a matter of education and evolution. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| The Church is the Body of Christ begotten, unified, and indwelt by the Spirit, but forgetting the Spirit, men wrangle over limbs, functions, and orders. The Christian religion is hopeless without the Holy Ghost. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| Confusion and impotence are the inevitable results when the wisdom and resources of the world are substituted for the presence and power of the Spirit. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
| The root-trouble of the present distress is that the Church has more faith in the world and the flesh than in the Holy Ghost, and things will get no better till we get back to His realized presence and power. Author: Samuel Chadwick |
