God Quotes
-
I do believe in God. That's why I'm alive.
Eric Massa
-
If you don't believe God has forgiven you, you are actually saying that God needs to do more for your forgiveness, and that Jesus' sacrifice was not enough.
Jud Wilhite
-
It hath been said, that there is of nothing so much in hell as of self-will. The which is true, for there is nothing else there than self-will, and if there were no self-will, there would be no Devil and no hell. When it is said that Lucifer fell from Heaven, and turned away from God and the like, it meaneth nothing else than that he would have his own will, and would not be at one with the Eternal Will. So was it likewise with Adam in Paradise. And when we say Self-will, we mean, to will otherwise than as the One and Eternal Will of God willeth.
Martin Luther
-
As men of the priesthood, we have an essential role to play in society, at home, and in the Church. But we must be men that women can trust, that children can trust, and that God can trust.
D. Todd Christofferson
-
O my people, I disavow all that you associate with God. I orient my face with an exclusive orientation towards Him, who created the heavens and the earth and I am not one of the associators.
Abdelkader El Djezairi
-
The activities we do for God are secondary. God is looking for people who long for communication with Him.
Erwin W. Lutzer
-
A very real barrier to faith is this feeling of self-sufficiency, this unrealistic idea that one can accomplish everything by his or her own self. Some people have the conviction they must do it all alone. They have no faith in others. . . they are convinced that there is no one able to do the job as well as themselves. They refuse to admit that they may need the help of friends, doctor, minister, or even God.
Norman Vincent Peale
-
I say to you with all the fervor of my soul that God intended men to be free. Rebellion against tyranny is a righteous cause. It is an enormous evil for any man to be enslaved to any system contrary to his own will. For that reason men, 200 years ago, pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor. No nation which has kept the commandments of God has ever perished, but I say to you that once freedom is lost, only blood - human blood - will win it back.
Ezra Taft Benson
-
God created man in His own image, says the Bible; philosophers reverse the process: they create God in theirs.
Georg C. Lichtenberg
-
The God you worship will shape the values you hold, and the values you hold will shape the lifestyle that you choose.
Colin S. Smith
-
The gracious, eternal God permits the spirit to green and bloom and to bring forth the most marvelous fruit, surpassing anything a tongue can express and a heart conceive.
Johannes Tauler
-
Nor shall the seeker reach his goal unless he sacrifice all things. That is, whatever he has seen, and heard, and understood (before), all must he set at naught, that he may enter the Realm of the Spirit, which is the City of God.
Bahá'u'lláh
-
God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say 'thank you?'
William Arthur Ward
-
You and I are the players, God's our head coach, and we're all playing the biggest game of all.
Joe Gibbs
-
My friends, nothing in all the world is so much worth thinking of as God, Christ, the Bible, sin and salvation, the divine purposes for humankind, life everlasting. But you cannot challenge the dedicated thinking of this generation to these sublime themes upon any such terms as are laid down by an intolerant church.
Harry Emerson Fosdick
-
Evolutionary theory, properly understood, does not conflict with the idea that God occasionally intervenes in nature - for example, by once or twice causing a beneficial mutation to occur. Biologists have not detected any such interventions despite the data and theory they have assembled about mutation. However, I think it is a mistake to expect biological experiments to be able to detect such one-off acts of divine intervention, especially if those acts occurred in the distant past. Science isn't in that line of work.
Elliott Sober
-
I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast.
Eric Liddell
-
If you have faith in the cause and the means and in God, the hot sun will be cool for you.
Mahatma Gandhi
