So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence.

In the Bible, we first encounter God when he sides with a bunch of slaves against a powerful Pharaoh, an act of grace freely given.

Unless we form the habit of going to the Bible in bright moments as well as in trouble, we cannot fully respond to its consolations because we lack equilibrium between light and darkness.

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.

I think Bible principles are principles for life.

Death wasn’t part of God’s original plan for humanity, and the Bible calls death an enemy – the last enemy to be destroyed.

A lot of psychological principles and even medical principles, you see them coming around to what the Bible said hundreds of years ago: a merry heart is good like a medicine.

I don’t claim to be knowledgeable about theology. Most of my knowledge comes out of my experience and the lessons in the Bible. Every Sunday I’m home I teach 45 minutes and we boiled them down to one page for the new book, ‚Through the Year with Jimmy Carter.‘

Christ comes as a thief in the night, & it is not for us to know the times & seasons which God hath put into his own breast.

The Bible says today is the accepted time, today is the day of salvation… But there will come a time when it will be too late for you.

I am a Christian, and the Bible teaches me to forgive.

Life is so, so short. Bible says it’s like a vapor.

To see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one.

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older; then it dawned on me – they’re cramming for their final exam.

I deal with more practical issues of the Bible.

I don’t have freedom in the United States to go into a public school and preach the Gospel, nor is a student free in a public school to pray, or a teacher free to read the Bible publicly to the students. At the same time, we have a great degree of freedom for which I am grateful.

I used to read five psalms every day – that teaches me how to get along with God. Then I read a chapter of Proverbs every day and that teaches me how to get along with my fellow man.

The New Testament says nothing of Apostles who retired and took it easy.

I don’t think people are going to talk in the future. They’re going to communicate through eye contact, body language, emojis, signs.

The Bible is the cradle wherein Christ is laid.

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

When we go to the Bible we should keep in mind that the basic principles of the Bible are taught by God, but written down by human beings deprived of modern day knowledge. So there is some fallibility in the writings of the Bible. But the basic principles are applicable to my life and I don’t find any conflict among them.

The Bible is one of the most genocidal books in history.

I think that the Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but the Bible also teaches that pride is a sin, jealousy is a sin, and hate is a sin, evil thoughts are a sin. So I don’t think that homosexuality should be chosen as the overwhelming sin that we are doing today.

Yes, the Bible should be taught in our schools because it is necessary to understand the Bible if we are to truly understand our own culture and how it came to be.

The Bible illustrated by Dore occupied many of my hours – and I think probably gave me many nightmares.

The Bible says that Christians are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. On the job, in the grocery store, even among unsaved friends and family members, God’s people are there to bring seasoning to an unsavory situation.

I have never sat down and studied the Bible, never consciously echoed its language, and am, in reality, as ignorant of it as most brought-up Christians. All of the Bible that I use in my work is remembered from childhood and is the common property of all who were brought up in English-speaking communities.

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

I’ve read the last page of the Bible. It’s all going to turn out all right.

The Bible tells us to be perfect. This is likely a scary thought for many people. It used to scare me. I didn’t think I could ever get there, no matter how hard I tried.

This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.

I have two pairs of reading glasses. One pair is for reading fiction, the other for non-fiction. I’ve read the Bible twice wearing each pair, and it’s the same.

Communism has decided against God, against Christ, against the Bible, and against all religion.

My family, frankly, they weren’t folks who went to church every week. My mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew but she didn’t raise me in the church, so I came to my Christian faith later in life and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead.
