Dear Friends,
Today I came across a collection of Christian quotes focused on, ”Living the Christian Life.” There were far too many to include all, so I had to select those which I thought were the best - Thoughts for the Week. I trust you might find one or two that clarify an issue you’ve struggled with, encourage your heart, bring you to nod in agreement, or bring a smile to your face. Enjoy.
“The man who never reads will never be read; he who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men’s brains, proves that he has no brains of his own… All originality and no plagiarism makes for dull preaching.”
Charles Spurgeon
“It is the duty of every Christian to be Christ to his neighbor.”
Martin Luther
“Any church that is not seriously involved in helping fulfill the Great Commission has forfeited its biblical right to exist.”
Oswald J. Smith
“We talk of the Second Coming, yet half the world has never heard of the first.”
Oswald J. Smith
“God uses men who are weak and feeble enough to lean on him.”
Hudson Taylor
“Someday, when in the presence of our Savior, we will thank him for every burden, every trial, and every heartache.”
J. Vernon McGee
“Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.”
Thomas Watson
“All the cunning of the devil is exercised in trying to tear us away from the Word.”
Martin Luther
“When I cannot read, when I cannot think, when I cannot even pray, I can trust.”
Hudson Taylor
“Faith does not eliminate questions; it simply knows where to take them.”
Elizabeth Elliot
“Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading.“
Oswald Chambers
“Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.”
Saint Augustine
“The most difficult lie I have ever contended with is this: life is a story about me.”
Donald Miller
“People often get upset when you teach them what is in the Bible rather than what they prefer to think is in the Bible.”
N.T. Wright
“It is sweet to be nothing, and less than nothing, that Christ may be All in All.”
David Brainerd
“Maturity in the Christian life is measured by only one test: how much closer to Christ and his character have we become?”
Elyse Fitzpatrick
“Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance but laying hold of his willingness.”
Martin Luther
“Those who aren't following Jesus aren't his followers. Followers follow, and those who don't follow aren't followers.”
Scott McKnight
“To judge another person's heart is only to expose what's in your own.”
Frank Viola
“Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you may not understand at the time.”
Oswald Chambers
“Our love grows soft if it is not strengthened by truth and our truth grows hard if it is not softened by love.”
John Stott
“If, then, you are looking for the way by which you should go, take Christ, because he himself is the way.”
Thomas Aquinas
“I am fallen, flawed and imperfect. Yet drenched in the grace and mercy that is found in Jesus Christ, there is strength.”
Adam Young
“Faith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the windows which hope has opened.”
Charles Spurgeon
