God Quotes
-
Like Andy Warhol and unlike God Almighty, Larry King does not presume to judge; all celebrities are equal in his eyes, saints and sinners alike sharing the same 'Love Boat' voyage into the dark beyond, a former sitcom star as deserving of pious send-off as Princess Diana.
James Wolcott
-
My friends, God is necessary for me if only because he is the one being who can be loved eternally.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
-
Satan can imitate God, but he cannot duplicate Him - God is the only One who can deliver us from our pain and suffering.
David Jeremiah
-
The Bible itself does not seem too bothered by the idea that talking of God suffering might in any way diminish God, or detract from his perfection. On the contrary, the Bible seems to revel in the richness of describing God in ways that reflect our own human realities.
Christopher J. H. Wright
-
The fruit of patience in all its aspects - long-suffering, forbearance, endurance, and perseverance - is a fruit that is most intimately associated with our devotion to God. All character traits of godliness grow out of and have their foundation in our devotion to God, but the fruit of patience must grow out of that relationship in a particular way.
Jerry Bridges
-
And God would bid His warfare cease, Saying all things were well; And softly make a rosy peace, A peace of Heaven with Hell.

Jeremy Taylor

I fully intend to preach the word of God to you until there's a difference between how you walk out of here and how you walked in here.
T. D. Jakes
-
I have a deep faith in God.
Bob McNair
-
God does not pay at the end of every day, but in the end He pays.
Anne of Austria
-
I must honestly declare my conviction that, since the days of the Reformation, there never has been so much profession of religion without practice, so much talking about God without walking with Him, so much hearing God's words without doing them.
J. C. Ryle
-
If we will take care of today, God will take care of the morrow.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
The loss of transcendence has left in its wake the flotsam of distrustful, cynical Christians, angry at a capricious God, and the jetsam of smug bibilolatrists who claim to know precisely what God is thinking and exactly what he plans to do.
Brennan Manning

I used to believe in God as a child. God, for me, was linked with hope.
Abi Morgan
-
To be ignorant and simple now-not to be able to meet the enemies on their own ground-would be to throw down our weapons and to betray our uneducated brethren who have, under God, no defense but us against the intellectual attacks of the heathen. Good philosophy must exist, if for no other reason, because bad philosophy needs to be answered.
C. S. Lewis

Mahatma Gandhi
-
Imagination magnifies small objects with fantastic exaggeration until they fill our soul, and with bold insolence cuts down great things to its own size, as when speaking of God.

G. Campbell Morgan
-
On the whole, God’s love for us is a much safer subject to think about than our love for Him. Nobody can always have devout feelings: and even if we could, feelings are not what God principally cares about. Christian Love, either towards God or towards man, is an affair of the will.
C. S. Lewis
-
When we surrender to God, we let go of our attachment to how things happen on the outside, and we become more concerned with what happens on the inside.
Marianne Williamson
-
God sends experience to paint men's portraits.
Henry Ward Beecher
-
I like a spirituality with a God that knows how to drive a car, that knows how to take his girl to the dance club, dance all night, have a little drink, kiss the kid when they come back in and go to sleep. God doesn't need a chauffeur - he needs to drive himself.
Jeff Buckley
-
God looks at the clean hands, not the full ones.
Publilius Syrus
