Christ Quotes
-
If I profess with loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except that little point which the world and the Devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved, and to be steady on all the battlefield besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.
Martin Luther -
When we have accepted Jesus Christ, we have become akin to the Father; having become real children of God, we then have the spirit of sonship by which we can come into His presence and make known our wants in a familiar way.
A. C. Dixon
-
It has been said that I have three heroes: Christ, Marx and Freud. This is reducing everything to formulae. In truth, my only hero is Reality. If I have chosen to be a filmmaker as well as a writer it is because, rather than expressing reality through those symbols that are words, I have preferred the cinema as a means of expression - to express reality through reality.
Pier Paolo Pasolini -
I believe that, that Christ became sin for us.
William P. Young -
The primary qualification for a missionary is not love for souls, as we so often hear, but love for Christ.

Christ is more of an artist than the artists; he works in the living spirit and the living flesh, he makes men instead of statues.
Vincent Van Gogh -
Christ is with us until the world's end. Let his little flock be bold therefore.
William Tyndale -
The Good News means we can stop lying to ourselves. The sweet sound of amazing grace saves us from the necessity of self-deception. It keeps us from denying that though Christ was victorious, the battle with lust, greed, and pride still rages within us.
Brennan Manning
-
You will have found Christ when you are concerned with other people’s sufferings and not your own.
Flannery O'Connor -
We cannot ask in behalf of Christ what Christ would not ask Himself if He were praying.
Albert Benjamin Simpson -
Christ is the Master; the Scriptures are only the servant. The true way to test all the Books is to see whether they work the will of Christ or not. No Book which does not preach Christ can be apostolic, though Peter or Paul were its author. And no Book which does preach Christ can fail to be apostolic, although Judas, Ananias, Pilate, or Herod were its author.
Martin Luther -
Most mainline Protestant churches are, to one degree or another, post-Christian. If they no longer seem disposed to converting the unbelieving to Christ, they can at least convert them to the boggiest of soft-left clichés, on the grounds that if Jesus were alive today he’d most likely be a gay Anglican bishop in a committed relationship driving around in an environmentally friendly car with an “Arms are for Hugging” sticker on the way to an interfaith dialogue with a Wiccan and a couple of Wahhabi imams.
Mark Steyn -
Whenever you begin any good work you should first of all make a most pressing appeal to Christ our Lord to bring it to perfection.
Benedict of Nursia -
The passive receiving of Christ is the process by which a spiritual principle of grace is generated in the will of man.
William Ames
-
Christ is indispensable to any scientific theory, even if its practitioners do not have a clue about him.
William A. Dembski -
One of the most subtle burdens God ever puts on us as saints is this burden of discernment concerning other souls. He reveals things in order that we may take the burden of these souls before Him and form the mind of Christ about them. It is not that we bring God into touch with our minds, but that we rouse ourselves until God is able to convey His mind to us about the one for whom we intercede.
Oswald Chambers -
Christ is risen! There is life, therefore, after death! His resurrection is the symbol and pledge of universal resurrection!
Henry Ward Beecher -
Life is rarely easy, but, with Christ our King, it is always good.
R.J. Rushdoony -
The principal means of acquiring an ardent love of Christ are mental prayer, Communion, mortification, retirement.
Alphonsus Liguori -
The Church limits her sacramental services to the faithful. Christ gave Himself upon the cross a ransom for all.
Blaise Pascal
-
The world is kept alive only by heretics: the heretic Christ, the heretic Copernicus, the heretic Tolstoy. Our symbol of faith is heresy...
Yevgeny Zamyatin -
In my view there are basically two types of weddings. There is the wedding that is based on law, and there is the wedding that is based on Christ and based on grace. We felt that those who have been married by the law, they would like to have that special privilege and benefit by being married by the church.
Bill Vaughan -
He Christ died for me. He made His righteousness mine and made my sin His own; and if He made my sin His own, then I do not have it, and I am free.
Martin Luther -
Our ownership in Christ is documented in the Word of God, and our names are registered in the Lamb's Book of Life.
David Jeremiah
