The Audience of One is All that Matters

“There are those who are concerned with the question of their standing before men but never with the question of their standing before God. …Such men, however, are not those who move the world. They are apt to go with the current. …The beginning of true nobility comes when a man ceases to be interested in the judgment of men and becomes interested in the judgment of God.” ~ J. Gresham Machen

Nothing...

‎"Do nothing that you would not like God to see. Say nothing you would not like God to hear. Go no place where you would not like God to find you. Never spend your time in such a way that you would not like God to say, 'What are you doing?'" ~ J.C. Ryle

Behave...

"We only learn to behave ourselves in the presence of God." ~ C.S. Lewis

Audience of One

"There is something unspeakably solemn in the thought that the Lord Jesus knows all things. There is an eye that sees all our daily conduct. There is an ear that hears all our daily words. All things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him, with whom we have to do. Concealment is impossible. Hypocrisy is useless. We may deceive ministers. We may impose upon our relations and neighbors. But the Lord sees us through and through. We cannot deceive Christ." ~ J. C. Ryle
