Jesus is ideal and wonderful, but you Christians – you are not like him.

A Christian who does not pray for those who govern is not a good Christian.

Jesus didn’t die for us so we could pretend to be something we’re not.

I believe that Jesus was, you know, the Son of God. And I understand that… we need to be really, really respectful to people who find that ridiculous and… preposterous.

See that the imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man.

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.

The brain is wider than the sky.

Pakistan will never be able to match the Indian militarily, and the effort to do so is taking an immense toll on the society.

I still enjoy watching a batter successfully cross home plate, but nothing thrills me more than seeing the Holy Spirit at work in hearts as the Gospel is carried into stadiums, across the airwaves, and around the world.

Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.

If Christ has died for me, ungodly as I am, without strength as I am, then I cannot live in sin any longer, but must arouse myself to love and serve Him who has redeemed me.

Ronald Reagan used to alarm other constituencies by speaking freely about the End Times foreshadowed in the Bible.

So you cannot, as a Christian, walk away from Africa.

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

You cannot be a conscious Christian without St. Paul. He translated the teachings of Christ into a doctrinal structure that, even with the additions of a vast number of thinkers, theologians and pastors, has resisted and still exists after two thousand years.

Christians are not limited to any church.

My belief as a Christian is when we receive Christ as salvation, that that gives us a guarantee for Heaven.

I tell you the solemn truth, that the doctrine of the Trinity is not so difficult to accept for a working proposition as any one of the axioms of physics.

Every child that isn’t born, but is unjustly condemned to be aborted, has the face of Jesus Christ, has the face of the Lord.

For God so loved the World that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

You can be committed to Church but not committed to Christ, but you cannot be committed to Christ and not committed to church.

Jesus teaches us another way: Go out. Go out and share your testimony, go out and interact with your brothers, go out and share, go out and ask. Become the Word in body as well as spirit.

French fries kill more people than guns and sharks, yet nobody’s afraid of French fries.

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

Mine is better than ours.

There is a power in God’s gospel beyond all description.

Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?

You see, rebellion, and the disobedience it causes, keeps us from having the power of God that’s available to us as Christians.

Real Christianity can be summed up in two commands: Love God, and love people.

Be a sinner and sin strongly, but more strongly have faith and rejoice in Christ.

For ninety per cent of those who view him from outside, the Christian God looks like a great landowner administering his estates, the world. Now this conventional picture, which is too well justified by appearances, corresponds in no way to the dogmatic basis or point of view of the Gospels.

But with Christ, we have access in a one-to-one relationship, for, as in the Old Testament, it was more one of worship and awe, a vertical relationship. The New Testament, on the other hand, we look across at a Jesus who looks familiar, horizontal. The combination is what makes the Cross.

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

When women kiss it always reminds one of prize fighters shaking hands.

Christ was God in human flesh, and He proved it by rising from the dead.

There are a lot of ‚chicken Christians.‘ Chickens are generally afraid of life, and they seldom fly or reach their potential in life. And when a storm comes, all they seem to do is flap around the chicken yard, stirring up dirt and running to the chicken house.

Don’t compare yourself with other people; compare yourself with who you were yesterday.

Fiction is such a world of freedom, it’s wonderful. If you want someone to fly, they can fly.

For Christians, who believe they are created in the image of God, it is the Godhead, diversity in unity and the three-in-oneness of God, which we and all creation reflect.

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.

When we walk without the cross, when we build without the cross and when we proclaim Christ without the cross, we are not disciples of the Lord. We are worldly. We may be bishops, priests, cardinals, popes, all of this, but we are not disciples of the Lord.

Music is like film to me.

You’d have a hard time finding anything better than Barcelona for food, as far as being a hub. Given a choice between Barcelona and San Sebastian to die in, I’d probably want to die in San Sebastian.

What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more.

There are many levels of Christianity. There are many notions about God. To believe that God is a person is just one of the notions of God that you can find in Christianity. So, we should not say that there is one Christianity. There are many Christianities.

Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she laid an asteroid.

Too many Christians live their lives like slaves – to the devil – because they believe his lies more than they trust God.

A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do.

The more you observe politics, the more you’ve got to admit that each party is worse than the other.

Our envy always lasts longer than the happiness of those we envy.

Every person who confesses that Christ Jesus is Lord, repents of their sin and gives their heart to God is a child of God and belongs to Him. And in Christ, we are made right with God, we are His righteousness, and we have the power of Christ in us to live right.

Prayer is such a basic foundation of a Christian’s relationship with God. It’s how we communicate and fellowship with Him. But a surprising number of people, young and old, new and even long-time Christians, say they’re not satisfied with their prayer life.

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

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 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.

During most of my freelancing, I made what I would have made in charge of the cafeteria at a pretty good junior-high school.

I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.

We should live our lives as though Christ were coming this afternoon.

I have found that, in the composition of the human body as compared with the bodies of animals, the organs of sense are duller and coarser. Thus, it is composed of less ingenious instruments, and of spaces less capacious for receiving the faculties of sense.

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.

I was in my late thirties when my eyes were opened to truth in God’s Word that showed me I wasn’t living the abundant life Jesus died for me to have. I had a very negative mindset and was miserable most of the time because of the abuse I had experienced throughout my childhood.
