More Great Quotes To Consider

Please note the first quote and its comment about simplicity (then re-read yesterday's post). May these quotes encourage and convict you if necessary:

"We are not called to proclaim philosophy and metaphysics, but
the simple gospel. Man's fall, his need of a new birth, forgiveness
through atonement, and salvation as the result of faith, these are
our battle-ax and weapons of war." - C. H. Spurgeon

"Knowledge is not about what information you have obtained but
how you use it." - Korbin Wallace

"Wrong attitudes in our lives will block the blessings of God and
cause us to live below God's potential for our lives."
- John Maxwell

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters
compared to what lies within us."- Ralph W. Emerson

"Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the
staggering nature of the rewards in the Gospels, it would seem
that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We
are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and
ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who
wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot
imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are
far too easily pleased." - C.S. Lewis

"Men don't follow titles, they follow courage, and if you would just
lead them, they would follow you forever, and so would I."
- Braveheart

"Lord, help me learn the secrets, that the little flowers know. That
if it never rains, we will never grow." - known

"If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can
satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for
another world." - C. S. Lewis

"But the Christian thinks any good he does comes from the Christ-
life inside him. He does not think God will love us because we are
good, but that God will make us good because He loves us; just
as the roof of a greenhouse does not attract the sun because it is
bright, but becomes bright because the sun shines on it." - C.S. Lewis

"Dear Friend,
God loves you, therefore seek Him diligently;
Pray to Him earnestly. Read His Word constantly.
Jesus is the Comfort."
- Evan Roberts

"Wanna know if Jesus Christ is THE ONLY WAY to heaven???
.....Ask the lost souls in hell!!" - unknown

"The thought of procrastination is murder to the soul."
- Charles G. Finney

"Nothing is too big for my God to accomplish, and nothing is too
little for Him to use in accomplishing it!" - Unknown
