Christian Maxims
|
~ Religion is man's search for God. Christianity is God's search for
man.
~ A Christianity that costs nothing, is worth nothing. ~ If you do not enjoy what you have now how can you be happier with more? ~ A Christian isn't a person who has received a new start in life. A Christian is a person who has received a new life to start with. ~ You must be melted before you can be molded. ~ Truth is so obscure in these times and falsehood so established that unless we love the truth we cannot know it./Blaise Pascal ~ Jesus promised His disciples three things: that they would be completely fearless, wonderfully happy, and in constant trouble. ~ Until a man is nothing, God can make nothing out of him. ~ Those whom God will employ are first struck with a sense of their unworthiness to be employed. ~ If your Christianity is comfortable, it is compromised. ~ To pay the price of obedience, is to escape the cost of disobedience. ~ Committment is a relationship with Christ that enables you in the midst of lifes greatest comforts, to be willing to die, and in the midst of lifes greatest trials, to be willing to live. ~ He who lives for God's honor and glory seeks neither praise nor reward. But in the end he is certain of both. ~ Ease is never good for the people of God. ~ The life rooted in God cannot be uprooted. ~ Do not grumble because you don't have what you want, rather, be exceedingly grateful that you don't get what you deserve. ~ To praise God for our miseries ends them. To praise God for our blessings extends them. ~ The bible is not only the worlds best seller, it is also man's best purchase. ~ True courage is like a kite, a contrary wind raises it higher. ~ The evolutionists seem to know everything about the missing link except that it is missing. ~ The probability of life originating by accident is comparable to the probability of the complete dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing factory. ~ The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is still a devil. ~ Experience is the best teacher and considering what it cost us, it should be. ~ To look is one thing. To see what you look at is another. To understand what you see is a third.To learn from what you understand is still something else. But to act on what you learn is what really matters. ~ The man who knows how will always find a place in life, but the man who knows why will likely be his boss. ~ A man who has made a mistake and does not correct it is making a greater mistake. Plato ~ He who has no fire in himself cannot warm others. ~ A fanatic is a person who loves Jesus more than you do. ~ It is easier to cool down a fanatic than to warm up a corpse. ~ A Christian either makes the world better or the world makes him worse. ~ The bible keeps you from sin and sin keeps you from the bible. ~ Give your life to God. He can do more with it than you can. ~ If God has called you, don't spend time looking over your shoulder to see who is following. ~ Were it not for sin, death would have never had a beginning. And were it not for death, sin would have never had an ending. ~ Seven days without prayer makes one weak. ~ Christ must be Lord of all or else He is not Lord at all. ~ I may not be what I should be, but by the grace of God I am not what I used to be. ~ God created the world out of nothing. And as long as we are nothing He can make something out of us./Martin Luther ~ Don't make the mistake of letting yesterday use up to much of today. ~ The bible is the only book in which the author is always present. ~ We don't need more strength or more ability or greater opportunity. What we need is to use what we have. ~ Truth is always strong no matter how weak it looks, and falsehood is always weak no matter how strong it looks. ~ The price of growth is always less than the cost of stagnation. ~ Success is going from one failure to another failure without losing your enthusiasm./Winston Churchill ~ Satisfaction in life arises in knowing you are where you belong./Joni Eareckson Tada ~ You have no control over which way the wind blows, but you can adjust your sails. ~ With Christ you do not need to understand in order to believe. You need to believe in order to understand./St. Augustine ~ Don't sweat the small stuff; and it's all small stuff! ~ It's not what happens to us that counts, but what happens inside us that really matters. ~ Controversy for the sake of controversy is sin. Controversy for the sake of truth is a divine command./Walter Martin ~ It is not my love for Christ that controls me. It is Christ's love for me that controls me. ~ Christ came to pay a debt that He did not owe, because we owed a debt that we could not pay. ~ The old covenant was a covenent of prosperity. The new covenant is a covenant of adversity whereby we are being weaned from this present world and made mete for the world to come./Charles H. Spurgeon ~ I don't know what the future holds, but I know who holds the future. ~ There is no hurt or pain so deep, that God's love is not deeper still./Corrie Tin Boom ~ Many people believe in you. Just make sure you are one of them./Marodet ~ Christians are like tea bags. You have to put them in hot water to see how strong they are. ~ If you don't like the way you were born, try being born again. ~ If you cannot find happiness along the way, you will not find it at the end of the road. ~ The problem with the average Christian, is that he is an average Christian. ~ What we see as adversity, God sees as opportunity. ~ The best time of the day is "now." ~ The will of God will never take you, where the grace of God will forsake you. ~ It is not our ability that God desires, it is our availability. ~ When Jesus called me into His Army, I had nothing. And if I end up with nothing, I will still break even. ~ Do unto others as if you were the others. ~ We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience. ~ Where God leads-God feeds. Where God guides-God provides. ~ One man can make a difference. Jesus did! ~ Without hope, you have no dream. Without a dream, you have no tomorrow. Without a tomorrow, you do not exist. ~ If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it. ~ I don't understand the situation, but I understand God. ~ A man with one watch knows what time it is; a man with two is never quite sure. ~ SMILE! It adds to your face value! ~ The best helping hand you will ever find is at the end of your own arm. ~ There is always free food on a fishhook. ~ It is more valuable to seek God's presence than it is to seek God's presents. ~ Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at will change. ~ I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who overcomes his enemies./Aristotle ~ Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something./Plato ~ All sects are different, because they come from men; morality is everywhere the same, because it comes from God./Voltaire ~ There is no high like The Most High. ~ In prison Joseph lay innocent between 2 criminals. Jesus likewise lay on the cross between 2 theives. Joseph foretells the salvation of one and the death of the other. On the cross Jesus saves the one repentant criminal and condemns the reprobate for the same crime. But whereas Joseph only prophesies, Jesus acts. Joseph asks the man who will be saved to remember him when he is elevated. But Jesus saves the man who asks that he be remembered when Jesus comes into His kingdom./Blaise Pascal ~ The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender./Vince Lombardi ~ Make sure what you're living for is worth dying for.
