Hebrews 12:1 - 2 (ESV)
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
The world can do almost anything as well as or better than the church. You need not be a Christian to build houses, feed the hungry, or heal the sick. There is only one thing that the world cannot do. It cannot offer grace.- Gordon McDonald
God rejoices. Not because the problems of the world have been solved, not because all human pain and suffering have come to an end, nor because thousands of people have been converted and are now praising Him for His goodness. No, God rejoices because one of His children who was lost has been found. - Henri Nouwen
Odd, the way the less the Bible is read the more it is translated.- C.S. Lewis
When you forgive someone, you slice away the wrong from the person who did it. You disengage that person from his hurtful act. You recreate him. At one moment, you identify him ineradicably as the person who did you wrong. The next moment, you change that identity. He is remade in your memory.- Lewis Smedes
I really only love God as much as I love the person that I love the least. - Dorothy Day
I know of no one who has overstated the terror of Hell...We are meant to tremble and feel dread. We are meant to recoil from the reality. Not by denying it, but by fleeing into the arms of Jesus, who died to save us ...Expand for more
from it. - John Piper
To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you. - C.S. Lewis
What a nation needs more than anything else is not a Christian ruler in the palace but a Christian prophet within earshot. - former Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda
Of one hundred men, one will read the Bible; the ninety-nine will read the Christian. - Dwight L. Moody
The perfect church service would be one we were almost unaware of. Our attention would have been on God. -C.S. Lewis
Jesus told me to go. He never said I would come back. Isn't that the life of a Christian? -Colombian Christian working in dangerous areas
God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain. -C.S. Lewis
The moment that you say "We have to abandon this theology in order to have the respect of the world," you end up with neither biblical orthodoxy nor the respect of the world. - R. Albert Mohler Jr.
If you want a religion to make you feel comfortable, I certainly don't recommend Christianity. -C.S. Lewis
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did the most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this." - C.S. Lewis
"When we consider the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires not too strong but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures fooling around with drink, sex, and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us. We are like an ignorant child who wants to go making mud pies because we cannot imagine what is meant by a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased." - C.S. Lewis
The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -Alexis de Tocqueville".
