“The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.”

“Many people are willing to have Jesus as part of their lives—as long as it doesn’t cost them anything. They may even profess faith in Jesus and join a church. But Jesus to them is almost like an insurance policy—something they obtain and then forget about until they die. What keeps you from being His disciple?”

“The Bible teaches that man can undergo a radical spiritual and moral change that is brought about by God Himself.”

Billy Graham
“Millions of professing Christians are only just that—“professing.” They have never possessed Christ. They live lives characterized by the flesh.”

“A Christian has tremendous responsibilities to his own family. He or she has a responsibility of loving each member of the family.”

“The Bible clearly teaches that when we turn our backs on God and choose to disregard His moral laws there are inevitable consequences. Furthermore it is not God who is to blame for the consequences, but the person who has broken His law.”

“Disappointments are part of life; we can’t always have our own way, and we need to learn to separate what is significant from what is merely annoying. Only in heaven will we be free of all disappointments and failures. A friend of mine says, “Oh well, a hundred years from now it won’t make any difference!”

“There is not one verse of Scripture that indicates you can be a Christian and live any kind of a life you want to. When Christ enters into the human heart, He expects to be Lord and Master. He commands complete surrender.”

Billy Graham
“There is only one passion that can help us control the many other passions that plague us; that is the passion to know and obey God. When we get out of touch with Christ, we begin touching the things of the world, trying to fill the void that human flesh craves.”

“A call for national and individual repentance is urgently needed today, or judgment is certain to fall.”

Billy Graham
“If you know Christ, you don’t need to beg for the Holy Spirit to come into your life; He is already there—whether you “feel” His presence or not. Don’t confuse the Holy Spirit with an emotional feeling or a particular type of spiritual experience.”

“We are so caught up with the affairs of this life we give little attention to eternity.”
