You don’t see too many atheists on the deathbed. They all start cramming then.

Those are my principles, and if you don’t like them… well, I have others.

I do put a lot of God in my music, but not because I’m super religious. There are a lot of demons in my music, too. I acknowledge both.

You’re not better than anybody else, but you’re not less than anybody else. You’re a child of the Most High God.

As apostles and prophets, we are concerned not only for our children and grandchildren but for yours as well – and for each of God’s children.

If you have enough people sitting around telling you you’re wonderful, then you start believing you’re fabulous, then someone tells you you stink and you believe that too!

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.

Men in general are quick to believe that which they wish to be true.

O, Thou precious Lord Jesus Christ, we do adore Thee with all our hearts. Thou art Lord of all.

I believe a marriage is between a man and a woman.

Faith is different from proof; the latter is human, the former is a Gift from God.

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

The revealed Word awakened me, but it was the preached Word that saved me, and I must ever attach peculiar value to the hearing of the truth, for by it I received the joy and peace in which my soul delights.

I have been chosen by God Almighty to be one of his messengers.

I was raised a Catholic on both sides of the family. I went to a Catholic grade school and thought everybody in the country was Catholic, because that’s all I ever was associated with.

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.

When we trust God more than our feelings, it confuses the devil. I mean, when he throws you his best shot and he can’t budge you from believing God, he won’t know what to do with you anymore.

God’s Spirit moves through us and the world at a pace that can never be constricted by any one religious paradigm. I love that.

Man is an imperceptible atom always trying to become one with God.

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

The wonderful news is that our Lord is a God of mercy, and He responds to repentance.

Our faith is faith in someone else’s faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Do I live as carelessly and worldly as unbelievers while professing to be a follower of Jesus? If so, I am exposing Christianity to ridicule and leading people to speak evil of the holy name by which I am called.

Questioning my spiritual life has always been germane to what I was writing. Always. It’s because I’m not quite an atheist and it worries me. There’s that little bit that holds on: ‚Well, I’m almost an atheist. Give me a couple of months.‘

God never gives someone a gift they are not capable of receiving. If he gives us the gift of Christmas, it is because we all have the ability to understand and receive it.

If God treats you well by teaching you a disastrous lesson, you never forget it.

About Jesus Christ and the Church, I simply know they’re just one thing.

I don’t believe in killing whatever the reason!

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.

You see, God helps only people who work hard. That principle is very clear.

Intolerance betrays want of faith in one’s cause.

I do not doubt that we would become more useful if we praised God more, and others would join us, for they would see that God has blessed us.

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

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

I have a strong feeling that I shall be glad when I am dead and done for – scrapped at last to make room for somebody better, cleverer, more perfect than myself.

I believe God gives you the grace to do what you need to do.

Despite the slowness, the infidelity, the errors and sins it committed and might still commit against its members, the Church, trust me, has no other meaning and goal but to live and witness Jesus.

Faith never makes a confession.

It’s certainly not wrong to want to be a better person. God gave us that desire.

We have all had the experience of finding that our reactions and perhaps even our deeds have denied beliefs we thought were ours.

Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.

I would never want to be a member of a group whose symbol was a guy nailed to two pieces of wood.

There are a lot of self-imposed restrictions by people who somehow believe they have to fall in with a certain military cant. There was always a sense that we had to put things into words that would touch our troops‘ hearts, not just their heads.

Fear of death makes us devoid both of valour and religion. For want of valour is want of religious faith.

Faith certainly tells us what the senses do not, but not the contrary of what they see; it is above, not against them.

Within the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the problems men face.

We teach that God’s love for His children is infinite.

When you face a ‚performance‘ that might provoke the ‚I’m scared‘ response, choose love and approach your opportunity as a chance to dance with God. It’s more fun than ‚Dancing with the Stars!‘

Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.

My faith was tested like Job. That’s the message I try to tell other people: just because you believe in God, serve God, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, people gotta realize, it don’t mean things not gonna happen to you.

Most of us have hoped and prayed for something to happen a certain way, but it didn’t. And when this happened, we had a choice to make: to react with offense toward God or to trust Him anyway.

A man lives by believing something: not by debating and arguing about many things.

Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.

Everything is subject to change except God Himself.

I am not promising that God will give you everything you want. There are times when we want things that God knows would not be good for us.

I’m an idealist without illusions.

Conversion is not my intention. Changing religion is not easy. You may develop some kind of confusion or difficulties.

Religion is the frozen thought of man out of which they build temples.

God is everywhere.

Faith is the complete reliance on the power and goodness of Spirit and the firm belief that you are always connected to this goodness. Always affirm your faith and not your doubt.

I think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt. I shouldn’t wish people dogmatically to believe any philosophy, not even mine.
