Christian Quotes - 27

Falsehood:


Stand against that which is wrong, show why it is wrong, overcome it and plant truth in its place. (A. W. Tozer)


Falsehoods not only disagree with truths, but usually quarrel among themselves. (Daniel Webster)


Peace is the first casualty of untruthfulness. (Rowan Williams)




Fanaticism:


By the time the average Christian gets his temperature up to normal, everybody thinks he's got a fever. (Watchman Nee)


Even fanaticism is to be preferred to indifference. I had sooner risk the dangers of a tornado of religious excitement than see the air grow stagnant with a dead formality. (Charles Haddon Spurgeon)


Fear:


Fear imprisons, faith liberates; fear paralyzes, faith empowers, fear disheartens, faith encourages; fear sickens, faith heals; fear makes useless, faith makes serviceable - and, most of all, fear puts hopelessness at the heart of life, while faith rejoices in its God. (Harry Fosdick)


The best answer to fear is to have a firm grasp of what it means to be accepted by God. (William Gurnall)


We fear men so much, because we fear God so little. One fear cures another. When man's terror scares you, turn your thoughts to the wrath of God. (William Gurnall)
