Best Christian Quotes

Christ came not to possess our brains with some cold opinions, that send down a freezing and benumbing influence into our hearts.

He who tries to learn of Jesus Himself, taking the very words from the Lord's own lips, binding himself to believe whatsoever the Lord hath taught and to do whatsoever He hath commanded-he I say, is the stable Christian.

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
