More Great Christian Quotes

"A person repents when he comes to the place where he discovers that the  will of God is the government of his life and the glory of God is the reason for his life. He only has repented who has changed his mind about his reason for being."
- Paris Reidhead


"A prayerless soul is a Christless soul. Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honour of a Christian"
- Charles H. Spurgeon


"Prayer is so simple. It is like quietly opening a door and slipping into the very presence of God. There, in the stillness, to listen to His voice, perhaps in petition or only to listen. It matters not. Just to be there in His presence is prayer."
- Author unknown


"Ministers often preach about the Gospel instead of preaching the Gospel. They often preach about sinners instead of preaching to them."
- Charles Finney


"I have now concentrated all my prayers into one, and that one prayer is this: that I may die to self, and live wholly to him."
- Charles H. Spurgeon


"Our lives are to be indisputable evidence of the resurrection of Jesus Christ."
- Carter Conlon


"Those who complain that they make no progress in the life of prayer because they "cannot meditate" should examine, not their capacity for meditation, but their capacity for suffering and love. For there is a hard and costly element, a deep seriousness, a crucial choice, in all genuine religion."
- Evelyn Underhill


"What I have seen in the past 10 years of traveling - performing at a church one day and a casino the next - is that a lot of people in the church want to be entertained, and people in casinos want to be ministered to. That's hard to understand, but I see a hunger in the world that I don't see in the church."
- Ricky Shaggs (musician)
