Quotations
With
Pentecost and the early Church in mind... Before
Pentecost the disciples found it hard to do easy things;
after Pentecost they found it easy to do hard things. Evangelism
never seemed to be an 'issue' in the New Testament. That
is to say, one does not find the apostles urging,
exhorting, scolding, planning and organising for
evangelistic programmes... evangelism happened! Issuing
effortlessly from the community of believers as light
from the sun, it was automatic, spontaneous, continuous,
contagious. - R
Halverson. Every age
is an age for evangelism. God has no grandchildren.- E
Smith The fruit
of the Spirit is not excitement or orthodoxy: it is
character.- G Duncan With
Trinity Sunday in mind... Almighty
God, eternal Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, creator of
heaven and earth and mankind, one with your Son and the
Holy Spirit, have mercy on us. Justify us through your
Son, Jesus Christ, and sanctify us with your Holy Spirit.
Establish, guard and guide your church, O God. - Philipp
Melanchthon And
some other quotes on a variety of subjects... Show me a
Bible that's falling apart and I'll show you someone who
isn't. When God
ordains, He sustains. WARNING:
Exposure to the Son may prevent burning. Plan
ahead - It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark. Most
people want to serve God, but only in an advisory
position. Suffering
with truth decay? Brush up on your Bible. If our
faith is not in the present tense, it will never be able
to stand the test of the days in which we live. The
family circle is the supreme conductor of Christianity. The best
time to tackle a minor problem is before he grows up. God does
not despair of you, therefore you ought not to despair of
yourself. The
middle of the road is where most accidents happen. |
