Heaven will be the perfection we've always longed for. All the things that made Earth unlovely and tragic will be absent in heaven.
Billy Graham
Image
You not only choose between two ways of life but you choose between two masters.
Billy Graham
Image
America's founding fathers did not intend to take religion out of education. Many of the nation's greatest universities were founded by evangelists and religious leaders but many of these have lost the founders concept and become secular institutions.

True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency.
Billy Graham

Prayer is the rope that pulls God and man together. But, it doesn't pull God down to us: It pulls us up to Him.

Everybody is a sinner before God. And I think we magnify it today because we have television, and we have so many other technologies that make what happens in some other part of the world in our living room.
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.

When tragedy strikes, no one is fully prepared to deal effectively with all the responsibilitie s, emotional trauma, and grief that begin to impact people. Our Rapid Response Team exists so that people can find the care and comfort of Jesus Christ in the midst of tragedy.

Those are decisions only the Lord will make. I believe the love of God is absolute. He said he gave his son for the whole world, and I think he loves everybody regardless of what label they have.
Billy Graham
Image
The key word of the dedicated Christian should be 'give.' Charitable contributions speak eloquently of your unselfish Christian generosity.

The Bible is actually a library of books-some long, some short- written over hundreds of years by many authors. Behind each one, however, was [the] Author: the Spirit of God.
Billy Graham

When anyone has the power to destroy the whole human race in a matter of hours, it becomes a moral issue. The church must speak out.
Billy Graham
Image
Every human being is under construction from conception to death.

I am not a televangelist.
Billy Graham
Image
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.

Truly, God works in mysterious ways. The wheels of His mercy and justice move quietly, but they do move.
Billy Graham
Image
God will prepare everything for our perfect happiness in heaven, and if it takes my dog being there, I believe he'll be there.

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 Bible's emphasis is on the good treatment of animals, and not just the forbidding of cruel treatment.
