Those who teach by their doctrine must teach by their life, or else they pull down with one hand what they build up with the other.
Integrity
John Bevere
It’s much better to tell the truth than to compromise the truth and have someone believe a lie. If you truly love someone, you must be truthful—even if you know it means rejection.

In a world defined by anger, our lives are narrowed into bitterness and violence. In a world defined by fear, our lives become anemic and timid. In a world defined by God love, the result is eternal life.
Jeremy Gove
Max Lucado
I choose goodness… I will go without a dollar before I take a dishonest one. I will be overlooked before I will boast. I will confess before I will accuse. I choose goodness.
Mark Batterson
When you are tempted to compromise your integrity, remember that an opportunity isn’t an opportunity if you have to compromise your integrity.
J.C. Ryle
Doctrine is useless if it is not accompanied by a holy life. It is worse than useless; it does positive harm. Something of ‘the image of Christ’ must be seen and observed by others in our private life, and habits, and character, and doings.
Joseph Cotten
There is something uniquely powerful about someone who spends their life in relative obscurity, staying true to Scripture, quietly obeying the leading of the Holy Spirit, remaining true to their marriage vows, not cheating on their taxes, growing in love and character. Along the way leading people to Jesus and holding fast to the belief that healing, signs, and wonders will confirm the preaching of the Gospel. Not seeking a platform, not hungry for fame or glory, but passionate to glorify the One and see the lost awakened to who He is. This is the life to which you and I are called. This is what the earth needs in the coming season.

Which is easier to make, the right choice or the wrong choice? It is as easy to make a right choice as it is to make a wrong one. The consequences, on the other hand, of a wrong choice can devastate you for life. So why not just make the right choice. Here is an interesting thing, most people know what that right choice is, they just don’t do it.
A.W. Tozer
What should seriously concern us… is not that the world praises Christ without obeying Him, but that the church does. The men of this world go their way careless of the teachings of Christ, but in doing so they are consistent with their position. They have made no vows to the Lord nor taken His name upon them. But when a Christian ignores the commandment of Christ, he is guilty of sin doubly compounded. He violates holy vows, is guilty of rebellion against God and commits the grotesque sin of calling Jesus Lord with his words and denying His Lordship with his deeds.
