What have you given the world it never possessed before you came?

Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an automobile.

If you are a stranger to prayer, you are a stranger to the greatest source of power known to human beings.

One reason sin flourishes is that it is treated like a cream puff instead of a rattlesnake.

The reason you don't like the Bible, you old sinner, is because it knows all about you.

I believe that a long step toward public morality will have been taken when sins are called by their right names.

Let's quit fiddling with religion and do something to bring the world to Christ.

Hell is the highest reward that the devil can offer you for being a servant of his.

I have more respect for the devil than for some preachers I have met; the devil believes the Bible is the Word of God!

The church is not a dormitory for sleepers, it is an institution for workers; it is not a rest camp, it is a front line trench.

The worldly life is constantly ablaze. To keep expectation, that it will extinguish, is wrong. So then we too should say to it, ‘you can keep on burning!

Most men's conscience, habits, and opinions are borrowed from convention and gather continually comforting assurances from the same social consensus that originally suggested them.

Men do not fail commonly for want of knowledge, but for want of prudence to give wisdom the preference.

I like the fact that a modern television and modern drama on cable has characters that are really intricate and deep and have multiple layers.

Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

One, two, three...let's go shopping!
