Christians Quotes
-
Men judge of Christians by taking as fair samples those that lie rotten on the ground.
Henry Ward Beecher
-
Some devout Christians are among the most fervent advocates of the death penalty, contradicting Jesus Christ and justifying their belief on an erroneous interpretation of Hebrew Scriptures. "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth," their most likely response, overlooks the fact that this was promulgated by Moses as a limitation- a prohibition against taking both eyes or all of an offender's teeth in retribution.
Jimmy Carter
-
I believe that Christians believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by works. And we believe that if you're saved, Jesus becomes your savior. He makes a promise to you. You can trust his promises. You can bank on that word.
Robert H. Schuller
-
We need to pledge ourselves anew to the cause of Christ. We must capture the spirit of the early church. Wherever the early Christians went, they made a triumphant witness for Christ. Whether on the village streets or in the city jails, they daringly proclaimed the good news of the gospel.
Martin Luther
-
By our everyday actions, by our unwillingness to admit our mistakes and sins, we Christians have declared God dead - perhaps without even realizing it. For is we no longer want to humble ourselves before God and man, acknowledging our sins, if we no longer want to repent, we do not need a living Savior.
Basilea Schlink
-
In the US, we consider our foreign policy as something rooted in the protection of American ideals of democracy and human development. However, we often fail to see the damaging consequences, many of which may be unintended, on others - including Christians - living in other parts of the world.
Ed McBain
-
Not their love of humanity, but the impotence of their love, prevents the Christians of today - burning us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
It's very important for Christians to be honest with God, which often, you know, God is much more interested in who you are than who you want to be.
Bono
U2
-
We simply do not know how many Christians suffered imprisonment or died at the hands of the authorities: possibly hundreds of people, although almost certainly not many thousands.
We do know that, in the end, the Christians came out on top.
Constantine converted, and with one brief exception all the emperors to follow were Christian. There would never again be an official Roman persecution of the Christians.
Throughout these early centuries of on-again, off-again opposition, Christians were not always bullied, beaten, tortured, and executed.
Most of the time, in most places, they were simply left in peace. Many Christians went from cradle to grave without facing any public ridicule, opposition, or persecution.
We do not hear much about these Christians for an obvious reason: peace and quiet rarely make it into the history books.
Bart Ehrman
-
I will believe in the Redeemer when the Christians look a little more redeemed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
I think Christians should be leaders in art, science, philanthropy, charity, and all kinds of good works. We should be good examples for everyone. Unfortunately though, that's not often the case.
Matt Smith
Poison
-
I like their Christ, but I don't like their Christians.
Mahatma Gandhi
