Becoming Christlike

"To become Christlike is the only thing in the whole world worth caring for, the thing before which every ambition of man is folly and all lower achievement vain."

The Church Must Rise

“The answer to today’s sin and misery is not ‘a church must rise.’ It is ‘the Church’ must rise. The Church Universal, composed of all believers, all who know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, must rise, get hold of God, put on the whole armor of God, and batter the gates of hell.”

The Biggest Threat Facing the Church

(The following quote is in response to the question "What is the biggest threat facing the church today?")

"It’s going with the world rather than challenging the world, and so representing Christianity as if it’s a call to be the nicest people we can be in accepting the rules and expectations of our culture. But the truth is that Christians are not called to be 'nice' people in that way; we’re called to be obedient people and God’s rules challenge the whole system of our culture, which is drifting away from God very fast."

Paul and Barnabus in Cyprus

"Paul and Barnabas didn't appear to have a five-year or even a one-year
plan. They got on the boat, and the wind of the Spirit, a supernatural and a
physical wind, blew them to Cyprus. Because Paul and Barnabas obeyed the
Spirit of God, the Church today is profiting 20 centuries later from those
churches that were launched."

Christianity and Goodness

"There was never law, or sect, or opinion did so much magnify goodness, as the Christian religion doth."

Francis Bacon
