| "The Holy Spirit makes a man a Christian, and if he is a Christian through the work of the Holy Spirit, that same Spirit draws him to other Christians in the church. An individual Christian is not Christian at all." »R. Brokhoff |
| "My object will be, if possible, to form Christian men, for Christian boys I can scarcely hope to make." »Thomas Arnold |
| "What a terrible time this is to be a Christian. The churches have failed and betrayed us, and the ministry preaches hate and murder. If there is a sane and reasoning voice in the Christian church today it is sadly silent." »Francois Arouet |
| "If a man cannot be a Christian in the place he is, he cannot be a Christian anywhere." »Henry Ward Beecher |
| "I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good ... if a Christian voted for Clinton, he sinned against God. It's that simple. Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country..." »Randall Terry |
| "Indeed, the Founders mentioned the pagan authors in so many heartfelt speeches, pamphlets and letters that today's sweeping references to America's 'Christian' roots and 'Judeo-Christian heritage' ought to be amended. Maybe these terms should be reserved to explain the traditional religions and morality of individuals, families, congregations, small communitities. Politically, our notions of virtue and vice have had another genesis." »Colin Campbell |
| "If Christ were here now there is one thing he would not be--a Christian." »Mark Twain |
| "There is no such thing as a solitary Christian." »John Wesley |
| "The foundation of true holiness and true Christian worship is the doctrine of the gospel, what we are to believe. So when Christian doctrine is neglected, forsaken, or corrupted, true holiness and worship will also be neglected, forsaken, and corrupted." »John Owen |
| "It is always the case that when the Christian looks back, he is looking at the forgiveness of sins." »Karl Barth |
| "Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to the garage makes you a car." »Laurence J. Peter |
| "We are living in a day of self-seeking and irresponsibility, even in Christian circles. Few indeed are the Christian believers who have truly laid their all on the altar for Christ. Few are the spiritual leaders who truly put God FIRST . Rather they think first, albeit subconsciously, of their positions, popularity, salaries and the success of the organizations over which they preside. While professing strong allegiance to God and His Word, they are nevertheless careful not to emphasize those passages from the Word which might ruffle feathers or rock the boat, as we say. In spite of their professed fidelity to God's Word and will, their first objective is actually to keep their organizations running smoothly and pleasantly so that they may continue to grow in numbers. This has become a way of life in Christendom, but in this matter too we should 'search the Scriptures daily,' to determine whether these things have God's approval, for however good and right a thing may seem, if it is at variance with the Word, rightly divided, it is contrary to the will of God and therefore wrong." »Cornelius Stam |
| "Needless to say since Christ's expiation not one single Christian has been known to sin, or die." »Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire |
| "Prayer is a strong wall and fortress of the church it is a goodly Christian weapon." »Martin Luther |
| "The so-called method of co-education is false in theory and hamful to Christian training." »Pope Pius XI |
| "You see few people here in America who really care very much about living a Christian life in a democratic world." »Clare Booth Luce |
| "It is in the ordinary duties and labors of life that the Christian can and should develop his spiritual union with God." »Thomas Merton |
| "The goal of every married couple, indeed, every Christian home, should be to make Christ the Head, the Counselor and the Guide." »Paul Sadler |
| "I have not seen any Christian sparrow or Muslim lion or Jewish elephant! Animals are lucky as they have not yet invented the religion!" »Mehmet Murat ildan |
| "God never built a Christian strong enough to carry today's duties and tomorrow's anxieties piled on top of them." »Theodore Ledyard Cuyler |
| "It does not require great learning to be a Christian and be convinced of the truth of the Bible. It requires only an honest heart and a willingness to obey God." »Albert Coombs Barnes |
| "The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried." »Gilbert Keith Chesterton |
| "If we get our information from the biblical material there is no doubt that the Christian life is a dancing, leaping, daring life." »Eugene Peterson |
| "... I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe." »J Danforth Quayle |
| "Doubting God's existence is okay and perfectly acceptable within Christianity as long as the person doubting remains obedient and committed to the Christian path." »Real Live Preacher |
| "The good Christian should beware the mathematician and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of hell." »Saint Augustine |
| "A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride." »Clive Staples Lewis |
| "It will be an ill day when our brethren take to bragging and boasting and call it 'testimony to the victorious Christian life.' We trust that holiness will be more than ever the aim of believers, but not the boastful holiness which has deluded some of the excellent of the earth into vain glory, and under which their firmest friends shudder for them." »Charles Haddon Spurgeon |
| "The Christian cannot be satisfied so long as any human activity is either opposed to Christianity or out of connection with Christianity. Christianity must pervade not merely all nations but also all of human thought." »J. Gresham Machen |
| "If you will protest courageously, and yet with dignity and Christian love, when the history books are written in future generations, the historians will have to pause and say, There lived a great people-a black people-who injected new meaning and dignity into the veins of civilization." »Martin Luther King, Jr. |
