Christian Quotes (page 42)

Most vices… demand considerable self-sacrifice. There is no greater mistake than to suppose the vicious life is the life of uninterrupted pleasure. It is a life almost as wearisome and painful—if strenuously led—as Christian’s in Pilgrims Progress. Aldous Huxley
William Shakespeare quote: "This making of Christians will raise the price of hogs."
This making of Christians will raise the price of hogs. William Shakespeare
Almost every convert runs the risk of catching our civilization... I compassionate missionary, leave China! come home and convert these Christians! Mark Twain
If you really think there's a Santa, why don't you sit on the front steps all night in the freezing cold and see if he climbs down any chimneys tonight. Good luck. And since we're a family that isn't lucky enough to have a chimney, how would Santa get into our house? Does he bring a locksmith with him?

The fondness, the endearment, the unstintingly affectionate regard of God toward all his creatures is the natural outflow of what he is to the core - which we vainly try to capture with our tired but... Dallas Willard
I want to be a more serious-minded Christian, more detached from this world, more ready for heaven than I have ever been in my whole life.

I call Christianity the one great curse, the one great intrinsic depravity, the one great instinct of revenge, for which no means are venomous enough, or secret, subterranean and small enough? I call it the one immortal blemish upon the human race. Friedrich Nietzsche
He's a rum dog. Don't he look fierce at any strange cove that laughs or sings when he's in company!' pursued the Dodger. 'Won't he growl at all, when he hears a fiddle playing! And don't he hate other dogs as ain't of his breed! Oh, no!''He's an out-and-out Christian,' said Charley. Charles Dickens
