More GREAT QUOTES -Sermonindex.net "Our lives are to be indisputable evidence of the resurrection of Jesus Christ." - Carter Conlon "The root of all sin is the suspicion that God is not good." - Oswald Chambers "Where reason cannot wade there faith may swim." - Thomas Watson "Don't plan without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made, when we have not taken Him into account." - Oswald Chambers "I know men, and I tell you that Jesus is not a man. The religion of Christ is a mystery which subsists by its own force, and proceeds from a mind which is not a human mind. We find in it a marked individuality, which originated a train of words and actions unknown before. Jesus is not a philosopher, for His proofs are miracles, and from the first His disciples adored Him. Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne and myself founded empires; but on what foundation did we rest the creatures of our genius? Upon force. But Jesus Christ founded an empire upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him. I die before my time, and my body will be given back to the earth to become food for worms. Such is the fate of him who has been called the great Napoleon. What an abyss between my deep misery and the eternal kingdom of Christ, which is proclaimed, loved, adored, and is still existing over the whole earth!" Then, turning to Gen. Bertrand, the emperor added: "If you do not perceive that Jesus Christ is God, I did wrong in appointing you a general." - Napoleon Bonaparte "Prayer can do anything that God can do." - E.M. Bounds "Revival is a renewed conviction of sin and repentance, followed by an intense desire to live in obedience to God. It is giving up one's will to God in deep humility." - Charles Finney "What I have seen in the past 10 years of traveling - performing at a church one day and a casino the next - is that a lot of people in the church want to be entertained, and people in casinos want to be ministered to. That's hard to understand, but I see a hunger in the world that I don't see in the church." - Ricky Shaggs (musician) "Sanctified afflictions are spiritual promotions." - Matthew Henry "Those who complain that they make no progress in the life of prayer because they "cannot meditate" should examine, not their capacity for meditation, but their capacity for suffering and love. For there is a hard and costly element, a deep seriousness, a crucial choice, in all genuine religion." - Evelyn Underhill "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it." -- Matthew 16:24,25 (KJV) "To love means loving the unlovable. To forgive means pardoning the unpardonable. Faith means believing the unbelievable. Hope means hoping when everything seems hopeless." - Gilbert K. Chesterton "Don't try to bring the Word of God down to your level. Let it pull you up to its level." - David MacDonald
