“ As the only citizens of God’s kingdom, only believers are equipped by the Holy Spirit to bear kingdom fruit.” (Volume 3, Page 299)
“It is only the humble heart, the servant heart, that enjoys greatness in the kingdom of God.” (Volume 3, Page 232)
“The fruit of the kingdom is the demonstrated righteousness produced out of a life turned from sin (see Phil 1:11; Col. 1:10). The unbelieving religious leaders would not turn from their sin and repent, and therefore they could not produce kingdom fruit (genuinely righteous behavior). They were spiritually barren, and because of that willful barrenness they were cursed, like the fig tree that had leaves but no figs (21:18–19).” (Volume 3, Page 299)
“And when anyone comes to God knowing he has no other prospect for life but Him, the Lord will always lovingly and mercifully accept that person for His own.” (Volume 3, Page 216)
“The fullest meaning of the term, therefore, had to do with an inward contentedness that is not affected by circumstances. That is the kind of happiness God desires for His children, a state of joy and well-being that does not depend on physical, temporary circumstances (cf. Phil. 4:11–13).” (Volume 1, Page 142)
