More quotes by Billy Sunday
I want to preach the gospel so plainly that men can come from the factories and not have to bring along a dictionary.
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
The Bible says forgive your debtors the world says sue them for their dough.
Billy Sunday
Being a king, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother.
Billy Sunday
When may a revival be expected? When the wickedness of the wicked grieves and distresses the Christian.
Billy Sunday
Home is the place we love best and grumble the most.
Billy Sunday
The world is wrong side up. It needs to be turned upside down in order to be right side up.
Billy Sunday
When the English language gets in my way, I walk over it.
Billy Sunday
After all is said that can be said upon the liquor traffic, its influence is degrading upon the individual, the family, politics and business, and upon everything that you touch in this old world.
Billy Sunday
Personal liberty is not personal license.
Billy Sunday
The backslider likes the preaching that wouldn't hit the side of a house, while the real disciple is delighted when the truth brings him to his knees.
Billy Sunday
The reason you don't like the Bible, you old sinner, is because it knows all about you.
Billy Sunday
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.
Billy Sunday
I tell you that the curse of God Almighty is on the saloon.
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
The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow.
Billy Sunday
The Bible will always be full of things you cannot understand, as long as you will not live according to those you can understand.
Billy Sunday
Enthusiasm is as good a thing in the Church as fire is in a cook stove.
Billy Sunday
When is a revival needed? When carelessness and unconcern keep the people asleep.
Billy Sunday
One reason sin flourishes is that it is treated like a cream puff instead of a rattlesnake.
