While our world is shaking and crumbling, we need to realize that one thing will never change, and that is God. He is the same today as he was ten million years ago, and will be the same ten million years from today.
Billy Graham

I think we are trying to run the space age with horse and buggy moral and spiritual equipment. Technology you see has no morals and with no moral restraints man will destroy himself ecologically, militarily, or in some other way. Only God can give a person moral restraints and spiritual strength.
Billy Graham
Image
Our certainty that angels right now witness how we are walking through life should mightily influence the decisions we make. God is watching, and His angels are interested spectators too.

I realize that my ministry would someday come to an end. I am only one in a glorious chain of men and women God has raised up through the centuries to build Christ's church and take the Gospel everywhere.

Christ did not suffer and die to offer cheap grace. Jesus did not go willingly to the cross so we could have an easy life or offer a faith built on easy-believism. As someone once said, 'Salvation is free, but not cheap.' It cost Jesus His life.

Our world is obsessed with success. But how does God define success? Success in God's eyes is faithfulness to His calling.
Billy Graham

Faith implies four things: self-renunciation, reliance with utter confidence on Christ, obedience, and a changed life.
Billy Graham
Image
The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service.
Billy Graham
Image
He (man) is both dust of earth and breath of God.
Billy Graham
Image
Confidentiality is the essence of being trusted.
Billy Graham
Image
The family should be a closely knit group. The home should be a self-contained shelter of security a kind of school where life's basic lessons are taught and a kind of church where God is honored a place where wholesome recreation and simple pleasures are enjoyed.
Billy Graham
Image
We are more united than ever before. I think this was exemplified in a very moving way when the members of our Congress stood shoulder to shoulder the other day and sang God Bless America.
Billy Graham
Image
The blood of the lamb applied over the doorpost on the night of Israel's deliverance from Egypt distinguished the obedient from the disobedient. Just so today the applied blood of the Lamb of God is the distinguishing mark of God's called out ones, the church.
Billy Graham
Image
If we fail to solve this moral and spiritual crisis we may be doomed like the great nations of the past.
Billy Graham
Image
When our faith becomes nothing more than a series of rules and regulations, joy flees and our love for Christ grows cold.
