"For this Gentile woman to come to the point where there was no “self” left in her means that she saw in Christ the principle of the cross. She was a follower of Christ in self-denial. She was experiencing with Him the principle of corporate repentance. In order for “self” to be denied, the Holy Spirit reveals everything there is whether out in the open or hidden beneath the surface. It is to see the sins of others as my own sins. This is our Day of Atonement repentance—the deeper meaning of our sanctuary truth—to which Jesus our priestly healer is leading us as a remnant people." ~Paul E. Penno
"How do we get it? —By faith. How else could we get it? Since it is impossible for any to get righteousness by the deeds of the law, it is evident that it must come by faith, as a gift. And this is in keeping with the statement that “the gift of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Someone says that it doesn’t seem possible that we could get righteousness in this way. But think a moment; “sin” and “righteousness” simply denote our relation to God." ~Ellet J. Waggoner
"I believe in the reality of the “wrath of God.” But where does it come in? As I see it in Scripture and the Spirit of Prophecy, God is not wrathful because men have rebelled against Him nor even because they crucified His Son. “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do” is His attitude toward that sin of mankind. His wrath will blaze forth when at the last the wicked attempt to exterminate God’s people! This is a willful, conscious re-crucifixion of Christ. The purpose of the second coming of Christ is that of a rescue operation, not a punishment expedition. The destruction of the wicked when they see His face is incidental." ~Paul E. Penno
"The expression, “God is good,” is one that is in very common use among Christians, yet we are morally certain that very few receive the benefit from it that they might. To very many the expressions brings more dread than trust, and the reason is that they have an erroneous and limited, idea of what is meant by the term “good.”" ~Ellet J. Waggoner
"Tired of carrying guilt? Dead-end life? Amusement surfeit? Feeling like a human discard? Needing a drink or a fix so you can cope? There’s a life-giving Savior very near you: Already your Savior, if you don’t stop Him, He has already redeemed you. He has a right to do that; He loved you. He has Himself died as the payment for your sins—the real death." ~Paul E. Penno
