Quote

It was not the people or the Roman soldiers who put Jesus on the cross - it was your sins and my sins that made it necessary for Him to volunteer His death.

On a specific day marked on the earth's calendar, and in a specific place on the earth's map, the Son of God came to the planet. It was love.
Billy Graham
Image
Not to decide is to decide not to, nowhere in the bible does it promise tomorrow.
Billy Graham
Image
If God eliminated evil by programming us to perform only good acts, we would lose this distinguishing mark - the ability to make choices. We would no longer be free moral agents. We would be reduced to the status of robots.
Billy Graham
Image
Christianity is not a spectator sport. It's something in which we become totally involved.
Billy Graham
Image
Suffering can give us opportunities to witness. The world is a gigantic hospital nowhere is there a greater chance to see the peace and joy of the Lord than when the journey though the valley is the darkest.

A life touched by the Holy Spirit will tolerate sin no longer.

If you don't make a decision then time will make it for you and time will always side against you!

Salvation is always good news. It is news of God's love and forgiveness-adoption into His family- fellowship with His people-freedom from the penalty of sin- liberation from the power of sin.

The men upon whose shoulders rested the initial responsibility of Christianizing the world came to Jesus with one supreme request. They did not say, 'Lord, teach us to preach' Lord, teach us to do miracles,' or 'Lord, teach us to be wise'...but they said, 'Lord, teach us to pray.'

Most of us know about God, but that is quite different from knowing God.

Our society strives to avoid any possibility of offending anyone - except God.
Billy Graham

Suppose you could gain everything in the whole world, and lost your soul. Was it worth it?
Billy Graham
Image
The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service. The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless.

I have the problems of, I must confess, old age.

Jesus Christ is the greatest man in the history of the world. And to me, he's the greatest person in the history of mankind and the universe. We can't prove it, I can't put it in a test tube or in an astronomical formula, but by faith I believe it because the Bible teaches it.

Image
I'm going to Heaven just like the thief on the cross who said in that last moment: 'Lord, remember me.'

Image
I am never lonely when I am reading the Bible. Nothing dissolves loneliness like a session with God's Word.
Billy Graham
Image
I'm not a righteous man. People put me up on a pedestal that I don't belong in my personal life. And they think that I'm better than I am. I'm not the good man that people think I am. Newspapers and magazines and television have made me out to be a saint. I'm not. I'm not a Mother Teresa. And I feel that very much.
