Christ Quotes

Faith will tell us Christ is present, When our human senses fail.
John Calvin

Christ cannot light a single spark in the heart of an individual, without that little tiny spark being for God. He gives the light, and has ordained that every ray of it is to reflect something for God.
George Wigram

The adventure of the Christian life begins when we dare to do what we would never tackle without Christ.

The average Christian leaves planet earth never having led anyone to Christ.
George Barna

Thou hast no life to lose, because thou hast given it already to Christ, nor can man take away that without God's leave.
William Gurnall

Christ asks for a home in your soul, where he can be at rest with you, where he can talk easily to you, where you and he, alone together, can laugh and be silent and be delighted with one another.
Caryll Houselander
-
The concept of a divine, or 'Christ'-mind, is the idea that, at our core, we are not just identical, but actually the same being.

-
In the way of Christ the reward of work well done is more work to do.
William Barclay
-
In order to learn true humility (I use this expression to describe the state of mind under discussion), it is good for a person to withdraw from the turmoil of the world (we see that Christ withdrew when the people wanted to proclaim him king as well as when he had to walk the thorny path), for in life either the depressing or the elevating impression is too dominant for a true balance to come about. Here, of course, individuality is very decisive.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
The merciful precepts of Christ will at last suffuse the Code and it will glow with their radiance. Crime will be considered an illness with its own doctors to replace your judges and its hospitals to replace your prisons. Liberty shall be equated with health. Ointments and oil shall be applied to limbs that were once shackled and branded. Infirmities that once were scourged with anger shall now be bathed with love. The cross in place of the gallows: sublime and yet so simple.
Victor Hugo
-
The sufferings of Christ are the means of forgiveness of sin and eternal glory.
John Calvin
-
Come to God for your healing. Don't hesitate. God, who is so full of goodness and supply, is always willing to bless, preserve, heal and restore you.
Joseph Prince
-
Death stung himself to death when he stung Christ.
William Romaine

...it ought not to appear wonderful if many, both Jews and others, who lived before Christ, and many also who have lived since his time, but to whom he has never been revealed, should be saved by faith in God alone: still however, through the sole merits of Christ, inasmuch as he was given and slain from the beginning of the world, even for those to whom he was not known, provided they believed in God the Father.
John Milton
-
A person who is obsessed with Jesus knows that the sin of pride is always a battle. Obsessed people know that you can never be "humble enough," and so they seek to make themselves less known and Christ more known.
Francis Chan
-
Instead of living in the sunshine of God's forgiveness through Christ, we tend to live under an overcast sky of guilt most of the time.
Jerry Bridges
-
Knowing what Christ knew , knowing all about mankind--ah! who would have thought that the crime is not so much to make others die, but to die oneself--confronted day and night with his innocent crime, it became too difficult to go on. It was better to get it over with, to not defend himself, to die, in order not to be the only one to have survived, and to go elsewhere, where, perhaps, he would be supported.
Albert Camus
-
There are other kinds of joy found in other places in the world, but there is no place where you can find Christian joy except in Christ.
David Jeremiah
-
The doctor can X-Ray you and say, 'You got cancer.' And then you go home and God let me see, does Christ have cancer? If Christ don't, I don't have cancer. All I need to do is get a picture of what he looks like. Because, if I can see Him I become like Him.
Eddie Long

Speaking truth will rarely earn you friends, but it will reveal who your true friends are and who are true friends of Christ.
Mark Hart Crowded House
-
Paul created a theology of which none but the vaguest warrants can be found in the words of Christ.
Will Durant
-
He that will maintain that man's free will is able to do or work anything in spiritual cases, be they never so small, denies Christ.
Martin Luther
