In some Churches today and on some religious television programs, we see the attempt to make Christianity popular and pleasant. We have taken the cross away and substituted cushions.

I don't think I get angry.
Billy Graham

The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you.
Billy Graham
Image
I'd grown up in a Presbyterian church, but I really didn't know Christ personally in my heart. I knew him, but I didn't know him. And there's a difference between an intellectual faith and a personal, heart faith in which I opened my heart to him and let him rule my life.

Christianity is not a spectator sport. It's something in which we become totally involved.
Billy Graham
Image
Think about the holes children make when they dig in the sand on the seashore. When the waves come in, the holes are swallowed up by the ocean. Similarly, when we know Christ, our physical death is overwhelmed by the love and grace of God. Death is swallowed up in the victory of Christ.

Our World has becoime a neighbourhood without becoming a brotherhood.

The farther we get from God, the more the world spirals out of control.
Billy Graham
Image
At great cost to Himself, God has made it possible for each of us to live with Him eternally. Those who reject God's offer of a heavenly home will be assigned to hell.
Billy Graham
Image
You have to decide to servant the gods of materialism all around us or the true and the living God.
Billy Graham
Image
It could be that one of the greatest hindrances to evangelism is the poverty of our own experience.
Billy Graham
Image
Nothing can bring a real sense of security into the home except true love.

There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.
