God’s Word is pure and sure in spite of the devil, in spite of our fear, in spite of everything.
~R.A. Torrey~
Madonna once said, “Jesus Christ was like a movie star, my favorite idol of all.”
Napoleon Bonaparte said: “I know men, and I tell you Jesus Christ was not a man. Superficial minds see a resemblance between Christ and the founders of empires and the gods of other religions. That resemblance does not exist. There is between Christianity and other religions the distance of infinity.”
And then there was novelist H. G. Wells: “I am a historian, I am not a believer. But, this penniless preacher from Galilee is irresistibly the center of history.”
C.S. Lewis reasoned that “a man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be [insane]… or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice… But, let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”
There is no form of sinfulness to which you are addicted that Christ cannot remove.
Charles Spurgeon
He who can say, 'I know that my Redeemer lives,' knows that his Redeemer is overall and able to do all things for him.
Jonathan Edwards
"Would you lose your sorrows?
Go, plunge yourself in God's deepest sea; be lost in his immensity."
Charles Spurgeon
"The Lord may not give gold, but he will give grace.
We may be called to labor, but with the call, there will come all the grace required."
Charles Spurgeon
God is perfect, the quintessence of good. He is sweetness in the flower. God is a *satisfying* good. The soul cries out, I have enough.
Thomas Watson
We must not only be reformed, but born again
J.C. Ryle
The more you know about Christ, the less will you be satisfied with superficial views of Him.
Charles Spurgeon
The Billy Graham rule--Never be alone with a woman who is not your wife--should still be followed by all pastors, deacons, etc. You'll never fall sexually if you follow this simple rule.
“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen — not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” -
C.S. Lewis
“The Christian faith differs from all other religions in that its doctrines are based on facts.”
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Truth saves, sanctifies, and strengthens. Lies dupe, deceive, and damn.

As God did not at first choose you because you were high, he will not now forsake you because you are low.
John Flavel
"Believe that there's light at the end of the tunnel. Believe that you might be that light for someone else." -

"You cannot buy or win happiness. You must choose it." -
John C. Maxwell
I believe the holier a man becomes, the more he mourns over the unholiness which remains in him. -
Spurgeon
Christianity is the only religion in the world that can help you make any real sense of the existence of evil—and also give you the hope that it will be overcome.
William Wolfe
If you’re not getting guidance, it’s because you aren’t listening.
"If a person wants to be a part of your life, they will make an obvious effort to do so. Don’t bother reserving a space in your heart for people who do not make an effort to stay." -
