Image
The trouble with many men is that they have got just enough religion to make them miserable. If there is not joy in religion, you have got a leak in your religion.

The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow.
Billy Sunday
Image
Give your face to God, and He will put his shine on it.
Billy Sunday
Image
The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow. It promises prosperity and sends adversity. It promises happiness and sends misery.... It is God's worst enemy and the devil's best friend.
Billy Sunday
Image
Some homes need a hickory switch a good deal more than they do a piano.
Billy Sunday
Image
There is no law, divine or human, that the saloon respects.

The fellow that has no money is poor. The fellow that has nothing but money is poorer still.

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.

When is a revival needed? When carelessness and unconcern keep the people asleep.
Billy Sunday
Image
If good preaching could save the world, it would have been done long ago.
Billy Sunday
Image
Personal liberty is not personal license.
Billy Sunday
Image
If you don't do your part, don't blame God.
Billy Sunday
Image
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
Image
God Almighty never intended that the devil should triumph over the Church. He never intended that the saloons should walk rough-shod over Christianity.
Billy Sunday
Image
Being a king, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother.
Billy Sunday
Image
When may a revival be expected? When the wickedness of the wicked grieves and distresses the Christian.
Billy Sunday
Image
Hypocrites in the Church? Yes, and in the lodge and at the home. Don't hunt through the Church for a hypocrite. Go home and look in the mirror. Hypocrites? Yes. See that you make the number one less.
