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

When is a revival needed? When carelessness and unconcern keep the people asleep.

The mother of Moses did more for the world than all the kinds that Egypt ever had. Oh, you wait until you reach the mountains of eternity, then read the mothers’ names in God’s Hall of Fame.

The Bible says forgive your debtors; the world says “sue them for their dough.”

I am a temperance Republican down to my toes.

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

I dare not exercise personal liberty if it infringes on the liberty of others.

God Almighty never intended that the devil should triumph over the Church. He never intended that the saloons should walk rough-shod over Christianity.

The law tells me how crooked I am. Grace comes along and straightens me out.

I am an old-fashioned preacher of the old-time religion, that has warmed this cold world’s heart for two thousand years.

I believe the Bible is the word of God from cover to cover.

When may a revival be expected? When the wickedness of the wicked grieves and distresses the Christian.

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

If you have no joy in your religion, there’s a leak in your Christianity somewhere.

The backslider likes the preaching that wouldn’t hit the side of a house, while the real disciple is delighted when the truth brings him to his knees.

Some ministers say, ‘If you don’t repent you’ll die and go to a place the name of which I can’t pronounce.’ I can! You’ll go to hell!

Live so that when the final summons comes you will leave something more behind you than an epitaph on a tombstone or an obituary in a newspaper.

If the biblical account of creation in Genesis isn’t true, how can we trust the rest of the Bible?

Yes, religion and politics do mix. America is a nation based on biblical principles. Christian values dominate our government.

The Christmas spirit brings home to us-or should bring home to us-the profound Biblical truth that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Anything which inspires unselfishness makes for our ennoblement. Christmas does that. I am all for Christmas.

Folks will quickly applaud you and tell you how much they admire you for “taking a stand” on biblical truth. Except if you quote Matt. 5:44 and invite people to apply it in any sort of meaningful, literal way.

If one takes a public stand against, say, most any sin you can think of, one is considered “courageous” and a “defender of the faith.”

The person who renders loyal service in a humble capacity will be chosen for higher responsibilities, just as the biblical servant who multiplied the one pound given him by his master was made ruler over ten cities.

Because religious training means credulity training, churches should not be surprised to find that so many of their congregations accept astrology as readily as theology, or a channeled Atlantean priest as readily as a biblical prophet.

The rate of change of scientific hypothesis is naturally much more rapid than that of Biblical interpretations, so that if an interpretation is founded on such an hypothesis, it may help to keep the hypothesis above ground long after it ought to be buried and forgotten.
