Jesus was not a white man He was not a black man. He came from that part of the world that touches Africa and Asia and Europe. Christianity is not a white man's religion and don't let anybody ever tell you that it's white or black. Christ belongs to all people He belongs to the whole world.

Every human being is under construction from conception to death.

I also would have steered clear of politics. I’m grateful for the opportunities God gave me to minister to people in high places people in power have spiritual and personal needs like everyone else, and often they have no one to talk to. But looking back I know I sometimes cros­sed the line, and I wouldn’t do that now.

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.

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.
Billy Graham

The hope we have in Christ is an absolute certainty. We can be sure that the place Christ is preparing for us will be ready when we arrive, because with Him nothing is left to chance. Everything He promised He will deliver.

I know God is in charge. Not me, I'm nothing. I wouldn't be anything except for the power of the spirit of God.

Love is to the heart what the summer is to the farmer's year. It brings to harvest all the loveliest flowers of the soul.

The problems of peace are greater than the problems of war.

It is a great privilege, as well as our responsibility, to pray for our government leaders.
Billy Graham
Image
I am convinced that when a man sincerely searches for God with all his heart, God will reveal Himself in some way.
Billy Graham
Image
Suffering is part of the human condition, and it comes to us all. The key is how we react to it, either turning away from God in anger and bitterness or growing closer to Him in trust and confidence.
Billy Graham
Image
I have never known anyone to accept Christ's redemption and later regret it.
