"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

"God has not any holy Book; but Man has many holy Book writers! Producing holy Books is a cosmic crime against God! God has not spoken yet! He has been silent for billions of years, because He is out of this universe!" »Mehmet Murat ildan

"My object will be, if possible, to form christian men, for christian boys I can scarcely hope to make." »Thomas Arnold

"Being filled with the holy Spirit, then, is a matter of obedience to the Word of God. The filling of the Spirit that all experienced at Pentecost was a matter of a promise being fulfilled. Today, the believer is to be filled in obedience to the command of Ephesians 518, continuously, not merely by a single, crisis experience. The christian life is a growth process toward maturity." »Clarence Cramer

"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
|
|
"God is religion; religion is God! There is no need ever for holy books, for holy rules or for so called holy envoys! God is religion; religion is God!" »Mehmet Murat ildan

"Things that are holy are revealed only to men who are holy." »Hippocrates

"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

"If a man cannot be a christian in the place he is, he cannot be a christian anywhere." »Henry Ward Beecher

"We thank you, Almighty God, for the gift of water. Over it the holy Spirit moved in the beginning of creation. Through it you led the children of Israel out of their bondage in Egypt into the land of promise. In it your Son Jesus received the baptism of John and we are buried with Christ in his death. By it we share in his resurrection. Through it we are reborn by the holy Spirit." »Book of Common Prayer

"For Scripture is the school of the holy Spirit, in which, as nothing is omitted that is both necessary and useful to know, so nothing is taught but what is expedient to know. Therefore we must guard against depriving believers of anything disclosed about predestination in Scripture, lest we seem either wickedly to defraud them of the blessing of their God or to accuse and scoff at the holy Spirit for having published what it is in any way profitable to suppress." »John Calvin

|
"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

"This agglomeration which was called and which still calls itself the holy Roman Empire was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire." »Voltaire

"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

"Everyone would like to behave like a pagan, with everyone else behaving like a christian." »Albert Camus
|
|
"The christian does not consider death to be the end of his life, but the end of his troubles." »A. Mark Wells
|
|
"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
|
