Dr. Hyles' Quote of the Day

I read where he preached " If you see my mouth on another woman, you better believe I'm giving her mouth to mouth resuscitation"
 
"An institution's reputation stays one generation behind its character."
 
"I'm just the little light at the top of the easel that lights the painting that He made."
 
"I can't make you forgive me, but you can't keep me from forgiving you."
 
God doesn't part the Red Sea for anybody going backwards.
 
This isn't an exact quote, but more than once Brother Hyles told us that if you are failing in a ministry, find someone who is succeeding and ask him for advice.
 
"You bury your dreams in the will of God and the Holy Spirit raises them up."
 
"A burden is a bonus that God gives His people who obey His command without one."
 
This isn't really a quote but as a child I heard Bro. Hyles tell a story several times in sermons about David watching a tennis match on tv and seeing the loser shake hands with the winner afterwards.  He told Bro. Hyles he would have a hard time shaking hands if he lost.  Bro. Hyles told him (in a hilarious way) not to shake hands but to jump over the net and hit the winner over the head with the tennis racket!
 
You are as good of a Christian as the height of your valleys, and not the height of your mountains.
                             
 
"I refuse to live above the standards of those who work for me."
 
"The secret to my preaching is that I refuse to preach a sermon unless there is a purpose for it and a practical application."

Did you type this one right?  Doesn't make any sense to me! Wouldn't the leader have higher standards than those who work for him?

He is talking about living standards such as the car I drive, the house in which I live, etc.
 
"If you laid all the assistant pastors end to end around the equator...it would be wonderful."
 
A goal should be that of effort not of accomplishment.
 
"No one can destroy you but you.  Someone else may provoke you to self-destruction, but you will do the destroying."
