Feast of Joseph of Nazareth Men today do not, perhaps, burn the Bible, nor does the Roman Catholic Church any longer put it on the Index, as it once did. But men destroy it in the form of exegesis: they destroy it in the way they deal with it. They destroy it by not reading it as written in normal, literary form, by ignoring its historical-grammatical exegesis, by changing the Bible's own perspective of itself as propositional revelation in space and time, in history. (Quote by - Francis Schaeffer)

He who desires to become a spiritual man must not be ever taking note of others, and above all of their sins, lest he fall into wrath and bitterness, and a judging spirit towards his neighbors. (Quote by - John Tauler)

Relationships.com gives Christian singles the tools they need to interact and have a voice within their community. Finally, Christian singles are empowered to find their soul mates. (Quote by - David Siminoff)

HOMOEOPATHY, n. A school of medicine midway between Allopathy and Christian Science. To the last both the others are distinctly inferior, for Christian Science will cure imaginary diseases, and they can not. (Quote by - Ambrose Bierce)

I think that Christians should not bash this movie without seeing it. A lot of Christians in America think that homosexuality and abortion are the only sins that God cares about, and since this movie is about homosexuality it's automatically from the depths of Hell. Christians didn't put up this much fuss about a movie like Ocean's 11 that makes stealing look cool. (Quote by - Nathan Willis)

Only a damn fool believes that American Christians have been kissing Israeli butts for 60 years and granted their every wish so the Jews could have their own country. The Israelis have been willingly put in harms way as an American outpost for control of the Middle East oil. (Quote by - Bobby W. Miller)

Feast of John, Apostle & Evangelist In several striking cases of conversion I have studied, those in need were inspired and affected, not merely by the kindness of an individual... but by the love and sympathy of the Church as a whole... Examples could be multiplied. This type of service is a great witness to the reality of Christian life and faith; but it presupposes a spirit of fellowship within the Church, a spirit which is all too rare. It means that there is mutual respect and trust between the minister and the members of his Church; and a spirit of fellowship which is outward-looking and which issues in service. (Quote by - Owen Brandon)

The early Christian rules of life were not made to last, because the early Christians did not believe that the world itself was going to last. (Quote by - George Bernard Shaw)

Commemoration of Brigid, Abbess of Kildare, c.525 We should not draw too sharp a distinction between this "barren land" or "wilderness" of our pilgrimage, and the sweet home that God has prepared. We all know the changes and chances of this troublous life; but we can also know in this vale of tears the healthful spirit of His grace. Health for the whole man is God's gracious purpose for us here and now, often frustrated, often prevented by unbelief. The life of the saints in light must not emphasize for us simply the contrast between their state and ours, but rather the beginning of the gift of eternal life and all its benefits of inner strength and peace amid earthly vicissitudes. . (Quote by - David Head)

I continually am confronted by Christians, even active members of major churches, who have never heard this taught in their local congregations. We have a lowest-common-denominator Christianity being taught in so many denominations that has produced a people who simply do not know some of the most basic Christian truths. (Quote by - Al Mohler)

Commemoration of Giles of Provence, Hermit, c.710 To think of the Communists as the executors of God's judgment should not strike us as strange if we have read our Bibles. The same study should free us from the assumption that God will always be on our side whatever we do, will always protect His Church from temporal evil; or that He is only concerned with the faithful believers. It was precisely His concern for the wicked Ninevites that so distressed the prophet Jonah. (Quote by - David M. Paton)

Now it is not good for the Christian's health To hustle the Aryan brown, For the Christian riles and the Aryan smiles, And it weareth the Christian down. And the end of the fight is a tombstone white With the name of the late deceased-- And the epitaph drear: "A fool lies here Who tried to hustle the East." (Quote by - Rudyard Kipling)

Servant of God, well done, well hast thou fought The better fight. (Quote by - John Milton)

It's a truly wonderful Christian agency. They prayed with us and gave us wonderful help. The people they guided us to in China were also Christian. (Quote by - Mary Malone)

A Christian is a man who feels Repentance on a Sunday For what he did on Saturday And is going to do on Monday. (Quote by - Thomas R. Ybarra)

The Christian Coalition of Alabama will work to ensure that reckless trial lawyers and activist judges will not be able to open the floodgates to increase taxes and that private, Christian, parochial and home-school families will be protected. (Quote by - John Giles)

The Augustinian doctrine of the damnation of unbaptized infants and the Calvinistic doctrine of reprobation . . . surpass in atrocity any tenets that have ever been admitted into any pagan creed. (Quote by - William Edward Hartpole Lecky)

There is a major disaster when a person allows some success to become a stopping place rather than a way station on to a larger goal. It often happens that an early success is a greater moral hazard than an early failure. (Quote by - Halford E. Luccock)

Christian: one who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbour. (Quote by - Ambrose Bierce)

Feast of Juliana of Norwich, Mystic, Teacher, c.1417 I saw full surely in this and in all, that ere God made us he loved us; which love never slackened, nor ever shall be. And in this love he hath done all his works; and in this love he hath made all things profitable to us; and in this love our life is everlasting. In our making we had beginning; but the love wherein he made us was in him from without beginning; in which love we have our beginning. And all this shall we see in God, without end. (Quote by - Juliana Of Norwich)

If you are going to call yourself a Christian-and I don't-then you have to ask yourself a fundamental question, and that is: Whom would Jesus torture? Whom would Jesus drag around on a dog's leash? How can Christians tolerate it? It is unconscionable. It has put our young men and women who are over there, fighting a war that they should not have been asked to fight-it has put them in greater danger. (Quote by - Ron Reagan)

I need not shout my faith. Thrice eloquent Are quiet trees and the green, listening sod; Hushed are the stars, whose power is never spent; The hills are mute: yet, how they speak of God! (Quote by - Charles Hanson Towne)

Many people profess Christianity. Very few live it-almost none. And when you live it people may think you're crazy. It has been truthfully said that the world is equally shocked by one who repudiates Christianity as by one who practices it. (Quote by - Peace Pilgrim)

Look in, and see Christ's chosen saint In triumph wear his Christ-like chain; No fear lest he should swerve or faint; "His life is Christ, his death is gain." (Quote by - John Keble)

If you read history you will find that the Christians who did 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. (Quote by - C.S. Lewis)
