More quotes by Billy Sunday
I have more respect for the devil than for some preachers I have met the devil believes the Bible is the Word of God!
Billy Sunday
A revival does two things. First, it returns the Church from her backsliding and second, it causes the conversion of men and women and it always includes the conviction of sin on the part of the Church. What a spell the devil seems to cast over the Church today!
Billy Sunday
There is no law, divine or human, that the saloon respects.
Billy Sunday
Jesus gave his life on the cross for any who will believe. We're not redeemed by silver or gold. Jesus paid for it with his blood.
Billy Sunday
Being a king, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother.
Billy Sunday
It is not what you have on you, but what you have in you.
Billy Sunday
The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow.
Billy Sunday
I am the sworn, eternal and uncompromising enemy of the liquor traffic.
Billy Sunday
Try praising your wife, even if it does frighten her at first.
Billy Sunday
If good preaching could save the world, it would have been done long ago.
Billy Sunday
Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an automobile.
Billy Sunday
Give your face to God, and He will put his shine on it.
Billy Sunday
America didn't need repeal, she needed repentance!
Billy Sunday
Sinners cannot find God for the same reason that criminals cannot find a policeman: They aren't looking!
Billy Sunday
The reason you don't like the Bible, you old sinner, is because it knows all about you.
Billy Sunday
You can't raise the standard of women's morals by raising their pay envelope. It lies deeper than that.
Billy Sunday
When may a revival be expected? When the wickedness of the wicked grieves and distresses the Christian.
Billy Sunday
Trying to run a church without revivals can be done when you can run a gasoline engine on buttermilk.
Billy Sunday
I have been, and will go on, fighting that damnable, dirty, rotten business with all the power at my command.
Billy Sunday
Some persons have lived manly or womanly lives, and they lack but one thing - open confession of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some men think that they must come to him in a certain way - that they must be stirred by emotion or something like that.
Billy Sunday
