The experience of God, or in any case the possibility of experiencing God, is innate.

The best way to know God is to love many things.

I am a little too absorbed by science to be able to philosophise much; but the more I look into myself, the more I find myself possessed by the conviction that it is only the science of Christ running through all things, that is to say true mystical science, that really matters. I let myself get caught up in the game when I geologise.

I believe that having a spiritual life is so important in everybody’s life.

God has given us two hands, one to receive with and the other to give with.

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

If you realize all the time what’s kind of wonderful – that is, if we expand our experience into wilder and wilder regions of experience – every once in a while, we have these integrations when everything’s pulled together into a unification, in which it turns out to be simpler than it looked before.

In our ecclesiastical region there are priests who don’t baptize the children of single mothers because they weren’t conceived in the sanctity of marriage. These are today’s hypocrites. Those who clericalize the church. Those who separate the people of God from salvation.

I’m an atheist and I thank God for it.

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.

The infinite faith I have in people’s ability to understand anything that makes sense has always been justified, finally, by their behavior.

I’ve been to those places where it’s ‚poor, pitiful me.‘

Where love is, there God is also.

Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also faith in man.

When I had to make a decision whether or not an activity was appropriate for the Sabbath, I simply asked myself, ‚What sign do I want to give to God?‘ That question made my choices about the Sabbath day crystal clear.

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

Sin, also for those who don’t have faith, exists when one goes against one’s conscience. To listen to and obey it means, in fact, to decide in face of what is perceived as good or evil. And on this decision pivots the goodness or malice of our action.

All I have seen teaches me to trust the creator for all I have not seen.

Even more amazing than modern technology is our opportunity to access information directly from Heaven, without hardware, software, or monthly service fees.

My religion teaches me that whenever there is distress which one cannot remove, one must fast and pray.

If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.

Our inquiring friends and neighbors not of our faith can also catch the wave. We encourage them to keep all that is good and true in their lives. And we invite them to receive more, especially the glorious truth that through God’s eternal plan, families can be together forever.

Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.

Creation is a miracle of daily recurrence. ‚A miracle a minute‘ would not be a bad slogan for God.

If people take anything from my music, it should be motivation to know that anything is possible as long as you keep working at it and don’t back down.

I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.

People say maybe we have a soul and chimpanzees don’t. I feel that it’s quite possible that if we have souls, chimpanzees have souls as well.

The true identity theft is not financial. It’s not in cyberspace. It’s spiritual. It’s been taken.

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?

Zen does not confuse spirituality with thinking about God while one is peeling potatoes. Zen spirituality is just to peel the potatoes.

I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God’s help I shall succeed.

I think that I do feel that my nature is to express what this self, this particular self at this time, experiences in the world. And that is so organic – I use this metaphor a lot but I’ll use it again – it’s like a pine tree producing pine cones, or a blackberry bush producing blackberries – it’s just what happens with this being, now.

Spiritual worldliness kills! It kills the soul! It kills the Church!

I’ve learned through my own relationship with God that He’s not expecting me to be perfect; He wants me to do my best to be in His will and take steps of faith as He leads me, through His Word and the promptings He speaks to my heart.

Think of what you are, you Christians. You are God’s children; you are joint heirs with Christ. The ‚many mansions‘ are for you; the palms and harps of the glorified are for you. You have a share in all that Christ has and is and shall be.

God is so big. It’s a gigantic concept in God. The idea that God might love us and be interested in us is kind of huge and gigantic, but we turn it, because we’re small-minded, into this tiny, petty, often greedy version of God, that is religion.

To you I’m an atheist; to God, I’m the Loyal Opposition.

If you have faith in our leaders of commerce, don’t buy gold. If you do not have faith in them, maybe you should buy gold or silver.

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.

I’m very careful about saying who would and wouldn’t go to heaven. I don’t know.

The only time my prayers are never answered is on the golf course.

I am a Christian. That obliges me to be a Communist.

Ordinary morality is innate in my view.

When you make a mistake and the devil comes and tells you ‚You’re no good,‘ you don’t have to take on the guilt and condemnation he wants to put on you. No! You can immediately confess your mistake to God, thank Him for forgiving you and cleansing you with the blood of Jesus, and move forward in the victory of His grace and forgiveness.

We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain.

God may be subtle, but he isn’t plain mean.

It is the quality of our work which will please God and not the quantity.

There is no chance and anarchy in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there sitting in his sphere.

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.

In each soul, God loves and partly saves the whole world which that soul sums up in an incommunicable and particular way.

Whether full-time missionaries or members, we should all be good examples of the believers in Jesus Christ.

A leader who confines his role to his people’s experience dooms himself to stagnation; a leader who outstrips his people’s experience runs the risk of not being understood.

Clinicians, academicians, and politicians are often put to a test of faith. In pursuit of their goals, will their religion show or will it be hidden? Are they tied back to God or to man?

In the divine milieu, all the elements of the universe touch each other by that which is most inward and ultimate in them. There they concentrate, little by little, all that is purest and most attractive in them without loss and without danger of subsequent corruption.
