"I have a problem with people who take the Constitution loosely and the Bible literally."

"From all of our beginnings, we keep reliving the Garden story."

"For the wages of sin is Death, but the gift of God is everlasting Life in Christ Jesus or LORD."

"As for biblical or religious theory, I don’t ever want to fight about the details of the story, I want to live the reality of the message."

"Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written."

"O Lord, you have searched me and you know me."

"Men cannot expect to do ill and fare well, but to find that done to them which they did to others."

"You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world.(Matthew 5:14, The Message)"

"Confidence that one's impressions are God-given is no guarantee that this is really so, even when they persist and grow stronger through long seasons of prayer. Bible-based wisdom must judge them."

"Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you."

"The total absence of humor from the Bible is one of the most singular things in all literature."

"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death."

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."

"I want to read the employment section of the Bible. I think it’s simply called Job."

"The proud person always wants to do the right thing, the great thing. But because he wants to do it in his own strength, he is fighting not with man, but with God."

"He does have surprising, secret purposes. I open a Bible, and His plans, startling, lie there barefaced. It’s hard to believe it, when I read it, and I have to come back to it many times, feel long across those words, make sure they are real. His love letter forever silences any doubts: “His secret purpose framed from the very beginning [is] to bring us to our full glory” (1 Corinthians 2:7 NEB)."
