Christianity quotes (21) Whatever makes men good Christians makes them good citizens. Daniel Webster Category: Christianity Not every one that saith unto me Lord Lord shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day Lord Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them I never knew you: depart from me ye that work iniquity. The Bible Category: Christianity Elton Trueblood Category: Christianity When the bier of anyone passeth by thee whether Jew Christian or Muslim rise to thy feet. Prophet Muhammad Category: Christianity The moon of Mahomet Arose and it shall set; While blazoned as on heavens immortal noon The cross leads generations on. Percy Bysshe Shelley Category: Christianity Hark! the herald-angels sing Glory to the new-born King; Peace on earth and mercy mild; God and sinners reconciled. Christ by highest heavn adored Christ the everlasting Lord Late in time behold Him come Offspring of a virgins womb! Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; Hail th incarnate Deity! Pleased as man with men to ppear Jesus our Immanul here. Hail the heavn-born Prince of peace! Hail the Sun of righteousness! Light and life to all He brings Risn with healing in His wings. Mild He lays His glory by Born that man no more may die; Born to raise the sons of earth Born to give them second birth. Come Desire of nations come Fix in us Thy humble home; Rise the womans conquering Seed Bruise in us the serpents head. Adams likeness now efface Stamp Thine image in its place: Second Adam from above Reinstate us in Thy love. Amen. Charles Wesley Category: Christianity If a man cannot be a Christian in the place where he is he cannot be a Christian anywhere. Henry Ward Beecher Category: Christianity Music I heard with you was more than music And bread I broke with you was more than bread. Now that I am without you all is so desolate; And all that once was so beautiful is dead. Conrad Aiken Category: Christianity Let every Christian be a gardener so that he and she and the whole of creation which groans in expectation of the Spirits final harvest may inherit Paradise. If we Christians truly treasure the hope that one day we like Adam and the penitent thief will walk alongside the One who caused even the dead wood of the Cross to blossom with flowers then we must also imitate the Masters art and make the desolate earth grow green. Vigen Guroian Category: Christianity Christianity is a battle not a dream. Wendell Phillips Category: Christianity PALACE n. A fine and costly residence particularly that of a great official. The residence of a high dignitary of the Christian Church is called a palace; that of the Founder of his religion was known as a field or wayside. There is progress. Ambrose Gwinett Bierce Category: Christianity He who shall introduce into public affairs the principle of primitive Christianity will change the face of the world. Benjamin Franklin Category: Christianity If Christians would really live according to the teachings of Christ as found in the Bible all of India would be Christian today. Mahatma Gandhi Category: Christianity As I understand the Christian religion it was and is a revelation. But how has it happened that millions of fables tales legends have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them the most bloody religion that ever existed? John Adams Category: Christianity If Christ were here now there is one thing he would not be a Christian. Mark Twain Category: Christianity Thomas Jefferson Category: Christianity Scratch the Christian and you find the pagan spoiled. Israel Zangwill Category: Christianity Following the way of Jesus Christ and doing all we can for His cause and for our fellow men expresses something of our worship in action. But how to give Him a present to express our love is a bit of a problem. How can you give God anything when He owns everything? But does He? How about that power to choose that precious free will that He has given to every living personality and which He so greatly respects? That is the only present we can give our selves with all our powers of spirit mind and body willingly freely given because we love Him. That is the best and highest worship that you and I can offer and I am sure that it is this above all that God most highly appreciates. J. B. Phillips Category: Christianity Christendom has done away with Christianity without being quite aware of it. Soren Aabye Kierkegaard Category: Christianity His Christianity was muscular. Benjamin Disraeli Category: Christianity Christ is either Lord of all or He is not Lord at all. James Hudson Taylor Category: Christianity |
