Quotes by C. I. Scofield

Grace is not looking for good men whom it may approve, for it is not grace but mere justice to approve goodness. [Rather] it is looking for condemned, guilty, speechless and helpless men whom it may save, sanctify and glorify.
C. I. Scofield

The problem of the Christian life rests on the fact that, as long as the Christian lives in this world, he consists, so to speak, of two trees - the old tree of the flesh, and the new tree of the divine nature grafted in through rebirth. The problem is how to keep the old tree unfruitful and the new tree fruitful. The problem is solved by walking in the Spirit.
C. I. Scofield
