Andrew Greeley




An adolescent is somebody who is in between things. A teenager is somebody who's kind of permanently there. And so living with them through the various teenage hopes and sorrows and joys was curiously enough a maturing experience for me.
Andrew Greeley

As the criminal, sinful war in Iraq enters its third year, the president goes to Europe to heal the wounds between the United States and its former allies, on his own terms of course.
Andrew Greeley

Everyone takes surveys. Whoever makes a statement about human behavior has engaged in a survey of some sort.
Andrew Greeley

I don't think Jesus was an exclusivist. He said, and we believe, that He is the unique representation of God in the world. But that doesn't mean this is the only way God can work.
Andrew Greeley

I have terrible handwriting. I now say it's a learning disability... but a nun who was a very troubled woman hit me over the fingers with a ruler because my writing was so bad.
Andrew Greeley

I have to say that I have no regrets about my decision to become a priest or about the major directions my ministry has taken me... I have been and am happy as a priest, and I have never been lonely... I could have used a bit more solitude.
Andrew Greeley

I think that the core doctrines of Christianity - the incarnation, the resurrection, life after death-these are as strong as ever. In fact, the belief in life after death has increased in this century.
Andrew Greeley

I think the only kind of acceptable evangelization is the evangelization of good example.
Andrew Greeley

I think the real problem for American religion are those minority of fundamentalists who try to identify political policies with religion.
Andrew Greeley

I wouldn't say the world is my parish, but my readers are my parish. And especially the readers that write to me. They're my parish. And it's a responsibility that I enjoy.
Andrew Greeley

I write easily, let's put it that way. And in a novel particularly, the characters take over. And they tell me what to say and they tell me what they're doing. And I'm a third of the way into a novel and then I just let the characters finish it for me.
Andrew Greeley

If we get you in the early years of your life and we fill your head with all of the Catholic stories, then it's very hard for you to stop being Catholic. Catholics are Catholics because they like being Catholic.
Andrew Greeley

In God, the characteristics of men and women that we admire in men and women are combined. That's been a traditional Catholic teaching that God is the combination of opposites.
Andrew Greeley

Is the patience of the American people that long suffering? Is there no outrage left in the country?
Andrew Greeley

It is also asserted that the election settled the matters of the war and the torture of prisoners. These are dead issues that no longer need be addressed.
Andrew Greeley

It was generally believed that Catholics were not interested in arts and science graduate schools. They weren't going to be intellectuals. And so I put the theses to the test. And they all collapsed.
Andrew Greeley

Nobody puts constraints on God. She doesn't like it.
Andrew Greeley

Note the three most important Cabinet positions. Rice said that it was better to find the weapons of mass destruction than to see a mushroom cloud.
Andrew Greeley

One cannot escape the harsh fact that as a ministerial profession, the priesthood has very serious problems. They are not new. They did not develop yesterday or last year.
Andrew Greeley

Practically speaking, your religion is the story you tell about your life.
Andrew Greeley

Priest organizations around the country, both local and national, should realize that their membership has a serious image problem and undertake programs to improve it.
Andrew Greeley

The Catholic men are more upset about women not being able to be priests than are Catholic women.
Andrew Greeley

The leadership lost its nerve. Instead of taking the lead in the reform movement... they pulled the plug on it. They tried and are still trying to return the church to the dry ice of the previous century and a half.
Andrew Greeley

There has always been a certain proportion of people who leave the Church on issues of authority and sex. That hasn't changed since we started doing research on it back in the early 1960s.
Andrew Greeley

There is good news in the data the strongest support for priests is to be found among the younger generation.
Andrew Greeley

Two studies from the year 2000, however, indicate that Catholics give lower ratings to their clergy's ministerial activities across the board than do Protestants.
Andrew Greeley

Well, religion has been passed down through the years by stories people tell around the campfire. Stories about God, stories about love. Stories about good spirits and evil spirits.
Andrew Greeley

Would it not be much better to have a president who deliberately lied to the people because he thought a war was essential than to have one who was so dumb as to be taken in by intelligence agencies, especially those who told him what he wanted to hear?
Andrew Greeley

Yet, if the most frequent sex and apparently the best sex is that between married partners who are faithful to one another, is there not a hint that affection might be an important aspect of sex? Even love?
Andrew Greeley

You're a Catholic in Italy when you're born, it's unthinkable to stop being Catholic. You just take the rules a lot more seriously, because it pervades your culture.
Andrew Greeley

It's great to have all this stuff at home. But when you want to make it for real, there's still nothing like making music with a bunch of other great musicians in the same room. That's one thing that'll never change.

They say love will find a way. I know determination will.

JESUS!



A church of dialogue in the contemporary world... a church, taking on the mission of Jesus, which is in the world not to judge humanity, but to love it and to save it.
Claudio Hummes

A lot of the powerful religious leaders, from Jesus to Buddha to Tibetan monks, they're really talking about the same things: love and acceptable, and the value of friendship, and respecting yourself so you can respect others.
Jena Malone

A rule I have had for years is: to treat the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal friend. His is not a creed, a mere doctrine, but it is He Himself we have.
Dwight L. Moody

After I set out to refute Christianity intellectually and couldn't, I came to the conclusion the Bible was true and Jesus Christ was God's Son.
Josh McDowell

All that I am I owe to Jesus Christ, revealed to me in His divine Book.
David Livingstone

Although believers by nature, are far from God, and children of wrath, even as others, yet it is amazing to think how nigh they are brought to him again by the blood of Jesus Christ.
George Whitefield

An icon painter starts not with Jesus Christ but by finding earth and rubbing. Now what is earth, what are you rubbing in directing?
Peter Brook

And History will smile to think that this is the species for which Socrates and Jesus Christ died.
Julien Benda

And I pray thee, loving Jesus, that as Thou hast graciously given me to drink in with delight the words of Thy knowledge, so Thou wouldst mercifully grant me to attain one day to Thee, the fountain of all wisdom and to appear forever before Thy face.
Venerable Bede

And yet you see the weakness of external evidence-and outward miracles; they were not sufficient to make true believers, or to make the Israelites believe that Jesus was their promised Messiah.
Elias Hicks

EveryStudent.com/Jesus

As I have studied the Bible and the Book of Mormon, I have come to know through the power of the Spirit of God, that these books contain the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Clayton Christensen

As I read, my suspicion that Jesus might really be the Messiah was confirmed.
Jay Alan Sekulow

As preachers of the gospel of Jesus, do not expect worldly honors: these Jesus Christ neither took to himself, nor gave to his disciples.
Adam Clarke

As the gospels present it to us, the mission of Jesus of Nazareth is about the way in which the community of God's people - historically, the Jewish people who had first received the law and the covenant - is being re-created in relation to Jesus himself.
Rowan D. Williams

As the leader of twelve apostles, even Jesus had more executive experience than Obama.
Ann Coulter

As we learn from the New Testament, the Jews and the Samaritans in the days of Jesus were not agreed on the question which was the proper place of worship, but that there could be only one was taken to be as certain as the unity of God Himself.
Julius Wellhausen

Being a Christian, I'm eager to introduce people to Jesus. I just don't think I should do it in the science classroom.
Kenneth R. Miller

Being noticed can be a burden. Jesus got himself crucified because he got himself noticed. So I disappear a lot.
Bob Dylan

Between 1910 and 1950 approximately 350 lives of Jesus were published in the English language alone.
John Clayton

But he is unworthy the name of a minister of the gospel of peace, who is unwilling, not only to have his name cast out as evil, but also to die for the truths of the Lord Jesus.
George Whitefield

But however long you may have continued in rebellion, and how ever black and long the catalog of your sins, yet if you will now turn to God by a sincere repentance, and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you shall not be cast out.
Archibald Alexander

But I will never stop helping and loving people the way Jesus said to.
Michael Jackson

But Jesus changes your attitude towards yourself and towards other people.
Cliff Richard

But the best definition of it is to say that heaven is that state where we will always be with Jesus, and where nothing will separate us from Him any more.
William Barclay

But to make a holiday record that involves favorite American songs and then also get to sing about Jesus birth, it just seemed like a real easy, subtle way to combine a couple of things that I love.
Amy Grant

Character in a saint means the disposition of Jesus Christ persistently manifested.
Oswald Chambers

Character is supreme in life, hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing - so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code but a character.
E. Stanley Jones

Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that; I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first - rock and roll or Christianity.
John Lennon

Christians should be ready for a change because Jesus was the greatest changer in history.
Ralph Abernathy

Conversion is a complete surrender to Jesus. It's a willingness to do what he wants you to do.

Day by day we should weigh what we have granted to the spirit of the world against what we have denied to the spirit of Jesus, in thought and especially in deed.
Albert Schweitzer

Death may be the King of terrors... but Jesus is the King of kings!
Dwight L. Moody

Do you really believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, plans to be a loser in history?
Gary North

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.
Mother Teresa

Every religious pioneer, including Jesus Christ, was persecuted by his contemporaries. But once people understand me, their turn can be dramatic like Saint Paul's.
Sun Myung Moon

For a Christian, Jesus is the unique and only way that God has fully revealed himself. For a Jew this cannot be.
Lionel Blue

For faithful Catholics, communion is not just a nice ritual: It is the body and blood of Jesus Christ, and the ultimate sign of our willingness to be incorporated into the church.
Maggie Gallagher

For in Jesus Christ there is neither male nor female, bond nor free; even you may be the children of God, if you believe in Jesus.
George Whitefield

For love is a willful stirring of our thoughts unto God, so that it receive nothing that is against the love of Jesus Christ, and therewith that it be lasting in sweetness of devotion; and that is the perfection of this life.
Richard Rolle

For the Christian, heaven is where Jesus is. We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be for ever with Him.
William Barclay

Fundamentalists believe Jesus was God becoming man. I believe that Jesus was man becoming God.
Eric Butterworth

God looked down on this country because this country was founded on the rock and that rock was our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And when the storms came and the rains came, the rock, it did not move. But over the last 15 or 20 years, something began to erode.
Bob Riley

God sent Jesus as an example to see if we could retain and maintain the Holy Spirit in human flesh.
Benny Hinn

Great things happen in small places. Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Jesse Jackson was born in Greenville.
Jesse Jackson

Help us to recognize your voice, help us not to be allured by the madness of the world, so that we may never fall away from you, O Lord Jesus Christ.
Albrecht Durer

Here's the simplest answer: Within weeks, the disciples proclaimed the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that He had been bodily raised from the dead and appeared to them.
Josh McDowell

How many Catholic schools do you think teach the students to question the authority of the Pope? Do you believe Christian schools teach students to question or challenge the authority of Jesus Christ? Do military schools teach the cadets to challenge the authority.
Neal Boortz

I ain't here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way yall need Jesus.
Kanye West

I always say that as a Christian I cannot find any passage in the Gospels in which Jesus condemned homosexuality.
Troy Perry

I am and always will be a sinner. But that's the beautiful thing about Jesus. I'll always try to be a better person in the eyes of God. But I'm not all of a sudden stepping up on a pedestal and saying I'm holier than thou, 'cause I'm not!

I am not the Jesus of the official church tolerated by those in power. I am not your superstar.
Klaus Kinski

I am reasonably happy. I didn't find Jesus or anything like that. Part of it is that I just feel that I could go home. I did not feel like that for a long time, but I could go back now.
Craig Ferguson

I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong.
John Lennon

I believe in one God, the first and great cause of goodness. I also believe in Jesus Christ, the rebirth of the world. I also believe in the Holy Ghost, the comforter.
Daniel Morgan

I believe with all my heart that the Church of Jesus Christ should be a Church of blurred edges.
George Carey

I came all this way for a reason. Today is the day of salvation. Trust Jesus to save you. Then be sincere as God knows a pretender.
Kirk Cameron

I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.
Malcolm Muggeridge

I didn't find Jesus. He's been there the whole time.
Billy Corgan

I don't think Jesus was an exclusivist. He said, and we believe, that He is the unique representation of God in the world. But that doesn't mean this is the only way God can work.
Andrew Greeley

I don't think that fundamentalism has anything to do with Jesus Christ. They call themselves Christians, but if that's Christian, count me out. Fundamentalism is built on fear and greed. They're telling you to give them your money otherwise you're going to hell.
Matthew Fox

I don't want people to see me - I want them to see Jesus.
James Caviezel

I felt unworthy to play Jesus. I just accepted the responsibility and said, 'What actor wouldn't want to play this role?'
Jim Caviezel

I find Jesus my confidant and companion, brother and savior; our relationship is intimate, vulnerable, demanding yet comfortable and reassuring.
Malcolm Boyd

I get scared to death when I see people who say they've found Jesus Christ, and they're out there, and I wonder, who's teaching them? Who's mentoring them?
Willie Aames

I got this Jesus tattoo on my wrist when I was 18 because I know that it's always going to be a part of me. When I'm playing, it's staring right back at me, saying, 'Remember where you came from.'
Katy Perry

I had life threats, because people accused me of approaching Brando as God and his son was Jesus. I literally had people saying my blood would run in the streets for doing that.
Richard Donner

I have always regarded global development as a struggle between the forces of good and evil. Not to be simplified as a struggle between Jesus and Satan, since I do not consider that the process is restricted to our own sphere of culture.
Alva Myrdal

I have no further use for America. I wouldn't go back there if Jesus Christ was President.
Charlie Chaplin

I have to go on being a priest and bishop, that is, to celebrate God and what God has done in Jesus, and to offer in God's name whatever I can discern of God's perspective on the world around - something which involves both challenge and comfort.

I heard that Jesus had a pet dinosaur. Evolution must be a myth then.
John Bacon

I hope we never get to the point that we put ourselves in Jesus' place. But when I read the New Testament basically, we get three mandates: to love God, to love each other, and to take care of the least among us. And I think this is at least a step in the right direction.
Bob Riley

I just want to say, that if Jesus were alive, what would he be doing? Well, he would probably be accepting and loving people how they're made. And I always say this and it's really the truth. If being 4'11 was a sin, what would I do? Well, I could wear heels and I could add a wig.
Kristin Chenoweth

I know Jesus Christ died for my sins, and that's all I really need to know.
Ann Coulter

I looked at some of the statues of Jesus; they were just stones with no life. When they said that God is three, I was puzzled even more but could not argue. I believed it, simply because I had to have respect for the faith of my parents.
Cat Stevens

I mean, I've sold all these scripts and nothing's been made. Studios have closed, stars have died. I had a director find Jesus. And the pictures just don't get made.

I never saw a contradiction between the ideas that sustain me and the ideas of that symbol, of that extraordinary figure, Jesus Christ.
Fidel Castro

I owe it all to Jesus.
Aaron Neville

I remember thinking, That's what I need - and that hope was in Jesus Christ.
Willie Aames

I saw Jesus walk into my bedroom.
Benny Hinn

I should just put it bluntly, because we're all sort of friends here now - it's exceedingly likely that my greatest success is behind me. Oh, so Jesus, what a thought! You know that's the kind of thought that could lead a person to start drinking gin at nine o'clock in the morning, and I don't want to go there.
Elizabeth Gilbert

I still believe in the nonviolent Jesus and the basic human goodness present in all of us.
Martin Sheen

I tell kids that people will let them down and people will hurt them. But Jesus Christ will never let them down and never hurt them.

I thank God, Jesus, and my Grandmother for being able to support myself and my family.
Steven Adler

I think it's silly for anyone to think you could write under the influence, but if they'd like to think that, I'd like to keep the legend alive. Maybe I was under the influence when I wrote Jesus' Son and I just didn't know it.
Denis Johnson

I think the Church is a conduit to God. The Church is not God. And I think that from the very beginning Jesus taught us that.
Martin Sheen

I want kids to understand that strength doesn't come from what goes on around you. It comes from inside you, and that comes from Jesus Christ.
Willie Aames

I was raised Catholic and I'm Presbyterian now, but I've always been a Christian, regardless of denomination. I believe that Jesus is the way.

It is from the traditional family that we absorb those universal ideals and principles which are the teaching of Jesus, the bedrock of our religious faith. We are taught the difference between right and wrong, and about the law, just punishment and discipline.

It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.

Phillips Brooks

Jesus claimed He had the power to raise himself from the dead and His followers would be raised from the dead. That's a unique claim in the literature of religion.
Josh McDowell

Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine.
Patti Smith

Jesus died to forgive our sins. Dare we make his martyrdom meaningless by not committing them?
Jules Feiffer

Jesus does not give recipes that show the way to God as other teachers of religion do. He is himself the way.
Karl Barth

Jesus gives his life for the congregation, not the other way around.
Rob Walton

Jesus got me through the slums without getting murdered. I just walked with him as though he were really there and not a spirit just floating around.
Larry Norman

Jesus is an example. We have other examples, including many of our ancestors as role models who understood the inner meaning of our orientation.
Malcolm Boyd

Jesus is just a word I use to swear with.
Richard Harris

Jesus is the God whom we can approach without pride and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.
Blaise Pascal

Jesus isn't a logo, I'm not promoting some company, some brand. I'm just professing my faith.
Stephen Baldwin

Jesus never said anything about homosexuality.
Patricia Ireland

Jesus picked up twelve men from the bottom ranks of business and forged them into an organisation that conquered the world.
Bruce Barton

Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a governor. And perhaps they should understand the role of a community organizer is to help people in distress.
Donna Brazile

Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.

No Wonder So Many Believe He is God See These Compelling Reasons.

Jesus was not denying the legitimacy of biblical law. On the contrary, He was affirming biblical law. We love God first; God commands us to keep His word; therefore, we must enforce the law on ourselves.
Gary North

Jesus was the first socialist, the first to seek a better life for mankind.
Mikhail Gorbachev

Jesus wept; Voltaire smiled. From that divine tear and from that human smile is derived the grace of present civilization.
Victor Hugo

Jesus, Son of the Eternal God, have mercy on me.
Michael Servetus

Joan of Arc had style. Jesus had style.
Charles Bukowski

John Paul II made it clear that... liberation theology based on the teaching of Jesus Christ was necessary, but liberation theology that used a Marxist analysis was unacceptable.
Claudio Hummes

John the Baptist, who we are told was related by blood to Jesus, was preaching the impending judgement of God, urging repentance and moral reform, and baptizing in the Jordan River those who responded.
Kenneth Scott Latourette

John's time and effort were, in the main, spent on pretty honorable stuff. As for the other side, well, nobody's perfect, nobody's Jesus. And look what they did to him.
Paul McCartney

Lennon was right. And we are bigger than Jesus. We will be as big as the Beatles, if not bigger.
Liam Gallagher

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.
Mother Teresa


Mary, my little girl, was confirmed in a Buddhist temple. She saw the Life write up on Buddhism, with pictures of the ceremony, and she said she wanted to be confirmed there because she only liked Jesus as a kid. She was a little disappointed in him when he grew up.
Kenneth Rexroth

Mere heathen morality, and not Jesus Christ, is preached in most of our churches.
George Whitefield

More than anything, people want the reality of the discussion at hand. If what is going on in that building is the real thing, if the transforming love and power of Jesus Christ is being experienced, you can sit on a metal folding chair or in a plush theater seat.
Bill Hybels

Mormonism is the pure doctrine of Jesus Christ; of which I myself am not ashamed.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Most of my songs are about Jesus. Most of my songs are about the idea that there is salvation, and that there is a Savior. But I won't mention his name in a song just to get a cheap play.
Pete Townshend

My family, frankly, they weren't folks who went to church every week. My mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew but she didn't raise me in the church, so I came to my Christian faith later in life and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead.
Barack Obama

My position is not that John Kerry is either Jesus Christ or the prophet Mohammad. My position is that John Kerry is the possibility of restarting politics.
Todd Gitlin

My story is the story of countless millions of children whose families and nations were torn apart for money in the name of Jesus Christ.
Sinead O'Connor

My version, of course, is not this flag-waving, let's all get on the Jesus train and ride out of hell. I'm not that kind of guy. It's an embrace that life is good, worth living and yeah, it's not easy, but there are more pluses than minuses.
Billy Corgan

Never think that Jesus commanded a trifle, nor dare to trifle with anything He has commanded.

No one else holds or has held the place in the heart of the world which Jesus holds. Other gods have been as devoutly worshipped; no other man has been so devoutly loved.
John Knox

No revolution that has ever taken place in society can be compared to that which has been produced by the words of Jesus Christ.
Mark Hopkins

No, the religion of Jesus is a social religion.
George Whitefield

None speak of the bravery, the might, or the intellect of Jesus; but the devil is always imagined as a being of acute intellect, political cunning, and the fiercest courage. These universal and instinctive tendencies of the human mind reveal much.
Lydia M. Child

Not only are Christians writing about Jesus, but also Communists, Jews, atheists and agnostics are taking up their pens to paint a portrait of Jesus.
John Clayton

Nothing is more prominently brought forward in the New Testament than the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
John Nelson Darby

O that our hearts were enlarged in love to God, that we might turn inward, to the blessed comforter, that the blessed Jesus said the Father would send.
Elias Hicks

One American said that the most interesting thing about Holy Ireland was that its people hate each other in the name of Jesus Christ. And they do!
Bernadette Devlin

One congressman asked 'I just want to know if you've accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior. The minister looked stunned, and he said 'no.' The whole table almost fell on the floor. The congressman was quite serious. That was his litmus test.
Jim Sasser

One encounter with Jesus Christ is enough to change you, instantly, forever.
Luis Palau

Paul the apostle recounted that Jesus appeared to more than 500 of His followers at one time, the majority of whom were still alive and who could confirm what Paul wrote.
Josh McDowell

People have described me as a management bishop but I say to my critics, Jesus was a management expert too.
George Carey

Pontius Pilate was the first great censor and Jesus Christ the first great victim of censorship.
Ben Lindsey

Religion kept some of my relatives alive, because it was all they had. If they hadn't had some hope of heaven, some companionship in Jesus, they probably would have committed suicide, their lives were so hellish.
Octavia Butler

Satan, really, is the romantic youth of Jesus re-appearing for a moment.
James Joyce

Since we have placed justification in the revelation of Jesus Christ formed and brought forth in the heart, there working his works of righteousness and bringing forth the fruits of the Spirit.
Robert Barclay

So finally I came up with a thing that felt really pure, and I'm Christian, so when I hear about death I have a lot of hope because I believe in Jesus and life after death, and John 3:16.
Victoria Jackson

Some have said that the power of a Redeemer would depend upon two things: first, upon the richness of the self that was given; and second, upon the depths of the giving. Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ.
E. Stanley Jones

Some persons have lived manly or womanly lives, and they lack but one thing - open confession of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some men think that they must come to him in a certain way - that they must be stirred by emotion or something like that.
Billy Sunday

Someday I suspect, when Jesus has definitely got me for a sunbeam, my works may be adequately assessed.

Starbucks says they are going to start putting religious quotes on cups. The very first one will say, 'Jesus! This cup is expensive!'

Suggesting a married Jesus is one thing, but questioning the Resurrection undermines the very heart of Christian belief.
Dan Brown

Thanksgiving is a season that is very much in accord with the themes and teachings of Jesus Christ.
John Clayton

That is someone who follows the teachings of the nonviolent Jesus and takes the gospel personally, and then pays the price. I fall into that category.
Martin Sheen

The amount of time we spend with Jesus - meditating on His Word and His majesty, seeking His face - establishes our fruitfulness in the kingdom.
Charles Stanley

The blood of Jesus Christ can cover a multitude of sins, it seems to me.
Denis Diderot

The Christian churches were offered two things: the spirit of Jesus and the idiotic morality of Paul, and they rejected the higher inspiration... Following Paul, we have turned the goodness of love into a fiend and degraded the crowning impulse of our being into a capital sin.
Frank Harris

The Church is presided over personally by Jesus Christ.
Richard G. Scott

The dearest friend on earth is a mere shadow compared to Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers

The difference between Socrates and Jesus? The great conscious and the immeasurably great unconscious.

John Piper

The founding document of the United States of America acknowledges the Lordship of Jesus Christ because we are a Christian nation.
Pat Robertson

The good news is that Jesus is coming back. The bad news is that he's really pissed off.
Bob Hope

The ideas I stand for are not mine. I borrowed them from Socrates. I swiped them from Chesterfield. I stole them from Jesus. And I put them in a book. If you don't like their rules, whose would you use?
Dale Carnegie

The Lord Jesus will be revealed mightily, and will make bare his holy Arm, as well in the confusion of Antichrist, as in the conversion of the Jews, before the last judgment, and the end of all things.
George Gillespie

The Marxist analysis has got nothing to do with what happened in Stalin's Russia: it's like blaming Jesus Christ for the Inquisition in Spain.
Tony Benn

The moment you enlist in the army of God, you personally become a target. You need to remember that if you're living for and walking with Jesus Christ, the powers of darkness are aligned against you.
Walter Martin

The most that one of Jewish faith can do - and some have gladly done it - is to say that Jesus was the greatest in the long succession of Jewish prophets. None can acknowledge that Jesus was the Messiah without becoming a Christian.

The name of Jesus, like a secret charm, awakened similar emotions in the hearts of all the converts, and called immediately into action every feeling of moral loveliness, and every desire of dutiful obedience, which constitute Christian purity.
John Strachan

The New Right, in many cases, is doing nothing less than placing a heretical claim on Christian faith that distorts, confuses, and destroys the opportunity for a biblical understanding of Jesus Christ and of his gospel for millions of people.
Mark Hatfield

The path I am trying so hard to follow is in fact the one that God my Father and His Son Jesus Christ want me to pursue. It has brought me deep happiness.

The real evidence for Jesus and Christianity is in how Jesus and the Christianity based on him manifest themselves in the lives of practicing Christians.
Lionel Blue

The real evidence is not practically speaking in scholarship but in how Jesus and the Christianity based on him manifest themselves in the lives of practising Christians. Their lives are the proofs of their beliefs.
