Chapter 15, Branded for Christ! This chapter did not speak to me very much, I’ll have to re-read it at a later date. Maybe, page 125, branded by humility. Paul never fished for praise with humility’s bait, but in the long line of sinners put himself first (where we would have put him last)

The spirit that field Paul Can so fill us that we, like him, can be identified with Christ in sacrifice if not in service. Where will this end with you, my brother? I do not know. But where it all begins is in an Exchanged Life whereby we no longer live—but Christ lives in us.

The law of prayer is the law of harvest; sow sparingly in prayer, reap sparingly; so bountifully in prayer, reap bountifully. The trouble is we are trying to get from our efforts what we never put into them.

Paul calls the Holy Ghost as a witness that he could wish himself acursed for his brethren. Madame Guyon prayed almost an identical prayer. Brainerd and John Knox or men of like passions. When did we ever hear such a prayer offered in our prayer meetings? We cannot have big results from our small prayers.
