I don’t believe in the war god of the Israelites. He’s a bogeyman. Jesus preached the golden rule, by and large.

I don’t argue when people say that my message is simple, but I believe Jesus‘ message was simple. Jesus didn’t go around condemning people.

When I hear a man preach, I like to see him act as if he were fighting bees.

We can approach God’s throne with boldness because we are confident in the power of what Jesus accomplished for us at the cross.

Christmas is the perfect time to celebrate the love of God and family and to create memories that will last forever. Jesus is God’s perfect, indescribable gift. The amazing thing is that not only are we able to receive this gift, but we are able to share it with others on Christmas and every other day of the year.

I believe that Jesus realized his oneness with God and he showed, what he attempted to do was show the way to all of us, how to realize our own onenes with God also, so he’s a precursor.

Gold was a gift to Jesus. If it’s good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for me!

Evangelicals can’t be closely identified with any particular party or person. We have to stand in the middle, to preach to all the people, right and left.

I don’t want to just preach to the church. I feel like I have a broader message.

This thing comes to me, not by the hearing of the ear, but by my own personal experience: I know of a surety that Jesus manifests Himself unto His people as He doth not unto the world.

I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life.

Give to everyone who begs from you; and of him who takes away your goods do not ask them again. And as you wish that men would do to you, do so to them.

You might say, ‚Can’t we have a more human Christianity, without the cross, without Jesus, without stripping ourselves?‘ In this way we’d become pastry-shop Christians, like a pretty cake and nice sweet things. Pretty, but not true Christians.

If the grandfather of the grandfather of Jesus had known what was hidden within him, he would have stood humble and awe-struck before his soul.

What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.

The first rule of business is: Do other men for they would do you.

I ain’t here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus.

Preaching is the expression of the moral sentiment in application to the duties of life.

There are so many things we have to overcome in this life with Jesus, His work on the cross. He’s paid the ultimate price for us, so I’m proud to be a child of God.

If Jesus were here today, he wouldn’t be riding around on a donkey. He’d be taking a plane, he’d be using the media.

I have never changed my message. I preach the Bible, and I preach it with authority.

Being noticed can be a burden. Jesus got himself crucified because he got himself noticed. So I disappear a lot.

I am radically, insanely, nutty in love with Jesus!

Jesus said, ‚The Kingdom of Heaven is within you.‘ I think if he lived nowadays, instead of ‚kingdom,‘ he would have said, ‚dimension.‘ And ‚heaven‘ refers to a sense of vastness or spaciousness.

People define Christianity differently. I think a large portion of our population are Christians, they’re not all growing in their faith, they’re not all active, but I believe that a lot of people believe in Jesus and believe that he is their Lord and Savior.

When Jesus comes to live in our hearts, the seed of holiness is planted.

The Israelites‘ slavery in Egypt is the equivalent of our slavery to sin. God sent Moses to deliver them from bondage, and He sent Jesus Christ to set us free.

Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.

Politeness is, you know, is a wonderful thing. Manners are in fact, really important thing. But remember, Jesus didn’t have many manners as we now know.

I believe that some of us who were kept by God a long while before we found Him love Him better perhaps than we should have done if we had received Him directly, and we can preach better to others – we can speak more of His loving-kindness and tender mercy.

I used to carry my father’s Bible and put it on the pulpit so he could preach.

There is no hope of anyone going to Heaven unless they believe this truth I am presenting. You cannot go to Heaven unless you believe with all your heart that Jesus took your place in Hell.

Judas betrayed Jesus. Lady Red betrayed John Dillinger. Those things happen.

Obama’s not Jesus. He can’t walk on water.

Writers write to influence their readers, their preachers, their auditors, but always, at bottom, to be more themselves.

People should not make me out to be like Jesus; I don’t walk on water.

If I wish to compose or write or pray or preach well, I must be angry. Then all the blood in my veins is stirred, and my understanding is sharpened.

Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It’s them twisting it that ruins it for me.

Let not a libation of tears be the only offering at the shrine of Jesus; let us also rejoice with joy unspeakable. If we have need to lament our sin, how much more to rejoice at our pardon!

I’m the most recognized and loved man that ever lived cuz there weren’t no satellites when Jesus and Moses were around, so people far away in the villages didn’t know about them.

Evangelism is when the Gospel, which is good news, is preached or presented to all people.

Let it be our delight to find our society in the circle of which Jesus is the center, and let us make those our friends who are the friends of Jesus.

I don’t argue when people say that my message is simple, but I believe Jesus‘ message was simple.

We might come closer to balancing the Budget if all of us lived closer to the Commandments and the Golden Rule.

When people say, you know, ‚Good teacher,‘ ‚Prophet,‘ ‚Really nice guy’… this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you’re left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.

Jesus isn’t lettin‘ you off the hook. The Scriptures don’t let you off the hook so easily… When people say, you know, ‚Good teacher‘, ‚Prophet‘, ‚Really nice guy‘ … this is not how Jesus thought of Himself.

Do not do unto others as you expect they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same.

Jesus never said a word about homosexuality. In all of his teachings about multiple things – he never said that gay people should be condemned. I personally think it is very fine for gay people to be married in civil ceremonies.

Has Jesus saved me? I dare not speak with any hesitation here; I know He has. His Word is true; therefore, I am saved.

I’ve never preached one sermon on money, on just finances. I want to stay away from it.

Jesus is a divine guest inside of you all the time – one who loves, understands, sees and hears you. He wants to live in oneness with you… to be the centerpiece of everything you do.

Was Jesus the son of God? Yes. But so are you. You just haven’t realized it yet.

When I hear Mitt Romney say that he believes that Jesus is the Son of God, that He’s the Christ, raised from the dead, that He’s his savior – that’s good enough for me.

An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.

The ideas I stand for are not mine. I borrowed them from Socrates. I swiped them from Chesterfield. I stole them from Jesus. And I put them in a book. If you don’t like their rules, whose would you use?

I believe in the Golden Rule – The Man with the Gold… Rules.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.

What an encouraging thought that Jesus – our beloved Husband – can find comfort in our lowly feeble gifts! Can this be, for it seems far too good to be true? May we then be willing to endure trials or even death itself if through these hardships we are assisted in bringing gladness to Immanuel’s heart.

Don’t complain. The Israelites wasted forty years murmuring and complaining in the wilderness, when they could have just obeyed God and entered into their Promised Land.

I think we’ve taken the meaning of Christmas out. People don’t stop and think about Jesus or the birth of Jesus. When they think of Christmas, they think of Santa Claus and – for the children, and they think of giving gifts and out-giving the next person of spending their time looking for the right thing for somebody who has everything.

What if others suffer shipwreck, yet none that sail with Jesus have ever been stranded yet.
