The only people we should ever want to get even with are people who've helped us. ~Rexella Van Impe

Fellowship is a place of grace, where mistakes aren't rubbed in, but rubbed out. ~Rick Warren (The Purpose Driven Life)


The only thing Christianity can not be...is moderately important." C.S. Lewis


"The preaching that this world needs most is the sermons in shoes that are walking with Jesus Christ." D.L. Moody

If God has fit you to be a missionary, I would not have you shrivel down to be a king." -Charles Spurgeon


"'Not called!' did you say? 'Not heard the call,' I think you should say. Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters, and servants and masters not to come there. And then look Christ in the face, whose mercy you have professed to obey, and tell him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish his mercy to the world."
-William Booth

"If you read history you will find out that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. - C. S. Lewis


"Our peace and confidence are to be found not in our empirical holiness, not in our progress toward perfection, but in the alien righteousness of Jesus Christ that covers our sinfulness and alone makes us acceptable before a holy God." - Donald Bloesch

"The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian." -A.W. Tozer

[Flynmonkie]

I love quotes - many reasons mostly because I like to compare them to the Bible (or not!) - by example. Here is one that I distinctly remember from C.S. Lewis it was very profound for me how he explained this and led me into further studies of "Why Christians - don't always act like Christians".... and eventually led me back to church...

"Finally, though I have had to speak at some length about sex, I want to make it as clear as I possibly can that the centre of Christian morality is not here. If anyone thinks that Christians regard unchastity as the supreme vice, he is quite wrong. The sins of the flesh are bad, but they are the least bad of all sins. All the worst pleasures are purely spiritual: the pleasure of putting other people in the wrong, of bossing and patronizing and spoiling sport, and back-biting; the pleasures of power, of hatred. For there are two things inside me, competing with the human self, which I must try to become. They are the Animal self, and the Diabolical self. The Diabolical self is the worse of the two. That is why a cold, self-righteous prig who goes regularly to church may be far nearer to hell than a prostitute. But, of course, it is better to be neither."
(C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity)

I love quotes from the Bible and from God and Jesus Christ. As well as quotes from Christian authors.
