Christ Quotes
-
Almighty and eternal Lord God, the great Creator of heaven and earth, and the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ; look down from heaven in pity and compassion upon me thy servant, who humbly prostrate myself before thee.
George Washington

Are we proud and passionate, malicious and revengeful? Is this to be like-minded with Christ, who was meek and lowly?
John Tillotson
-
I was writing a contemporary take on Paul's vision of Christ on the road to Damascus, but with a guy driving a Bus load of tourists.
Stuart Adamson

It is not possible to engage in the direct apostolate without being a soul of prayer. We must be aware of oneness with Christ, as he was aware of oneness with his Father. Our activity is truly apostolic only insofar as we permit him to work in us and through us with his power, with his desire, with his love.
Mother Teresa
-
We do know that no person can be saved except through Christ. We do not know that only those who know Him can be saved by Him.
C. S. Lewis
-
Christ is one of the 'family' now. I often wonder if God recognizes his own son the way we've dressed him up, or is it dressed him down? He's regular peppermint stick now, all sugar crystal and saccharine - when he isn't making veiled references to certain commercial products that ever worshiper absolutely needs.
Ray Bradbury
-
The kiss of the apostate was the most bitter earthly ingredient in the agonies which Christ endured.

What good are Greek, commentaries, insight, gift, and all the rest, if there is no heart for Christ?

I don't reject Christ. I love Christ. It's just that so many of you Christians are so unlike Christ.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
Essentially, I'm a very real person; good and bad. And the public image is one of being very good, I suppose. But one of the reasons I'm attracted to people like Martin Luther King, Jr., Gandhi, Christ, to pacifism, is because naturally, I'm the guy that would not turn the other cheek - but, when people see you're attracted to that, they think you are that.
Bono
U2
-
Yes, I see the Church as the body of Christ. But, oh! How we have blemished and scarred that body through social neglect and through fear of being nonconformists.
Martin Luther
-
We live in a time when Christians need to be told that they are supposed to live like Christ. That's Weird.
Francis Chan
-
The work that Christ started but could not finish, I - Adolf Hitler - will conclude.
Adolf Hitler
-
It is true that every day has its own evil, and its good too. But how difficult must life be, especially farther on when the evil of each day increases as far as worldly things go, if it is not strengthened and comforted by faith. And in Christ all worldly things may become better, and, as it were, sanctified. Theo, woe is me if I do not preach the Gospel; if I did not aim at that and possess faith and hope in Christ, it would be bad for me indeed, but no I have some courage.
Vincent Van Gogh
-
I'm very glad Christ tells us to love our neighbor and not to like our neighbor because it's hard to like someone threatening your children and throwing fire bombs through your window, but He asks us to love them and that I can do.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
Christ preaches only servitude and dependence... True Christians are made to be slaves.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
-
Wondrous as it is, how simple is this mystery! To love Christ and to know that I love Him--this is all!
Elizabeth Prentiss
-
Some men are willing to die for their faith but will not fully live for it. Christ both lived and died for us. By walking in his steps and through his atonement we can gain the greatest gift of all--eternal life--which is that kind of life of the great Eternal One, our Father in heaven.
Ezra Taft Benson
-
Indeed the mystery of Christ runs the risk of being disbelieved precisely because it is so incredibly wonderful
Cyril of Alexandria
-
The best and most clear indicator that we are progressing spiritually and coming unto Christ is the way we treat other people.
Marvin J. Ashton
-
My prayer for you is that you may grow in the likeness of Christ, being real carriers of God's love and that you really bring his presence, first, into your own family, then, to the next door neighbor, the street you we live in, the town we live in, the country we live, then only, in the whole world, that living example of God's presence.
Mother Teresa
-
The unity of Christendom is not a luxury, but a necessity. The world will go limping until Christ's prayer that all may be one is answered. We must have unity, not at all costs, but at all risks. A unified Church is the only offering we dare present to the coming Christ, for in it alone will He find room to dwell.
Charles Brent
