More quotes by Charles Stanley
You can't tell a woman who is called by God to teach that she cannot teach the Word of God... So I think the distinction is that there's a difference between the authority of a pastor and a Bible teacher.
Charles Stanley
To become God's mighty servants, we must decide whether we will base our life on His priorities or the world's. The two are incompatible.
Charles Stanley
I think a lot of people, even Christians, are willing to be satisfied with gaining lots and lots of biblical knowledge - and many people go to Bible studies and don't realize it isn't enough to know what's right, it's applying the information and the knowledge that you have.
Charles Stanley
When we surrender to His timing, He does mighty things in and for us, according to His will and His timing. God acts on behalf of those who wait for Him.
Charles Stanley
God wants you to understand the Word of God. The Bible is not a mystery book. It's not a book of philosophy. It's a book of truth that explains the attitude and heart of almighty God.
Charles Stanley
The Bible reveals the Father's overall plan for the world and provides general guidelines for life. But how can we know His specific plans for us? Listening to God is essential to walking with God.
Charles Stanley
Helping someone come to a saving knowledge of Christ is the greatest achievement possible.
Charles Stanley
Nations fight against nations, in marriages people fight against each other, children fight against each other. We are in warfare, in a national warfare, and in warfare with each other and with ourselves.
Charles Stanley
When we learn from experience, the scars of sin can lead us to restoration and a renewed intimacy with God.
Charles Stanley
If you have an anxiety lay it down before The Lord
Charles Stanley
The best way in the world to deceive believers is to cloak a message in religious language and declare that it conveys some new insight from God.
Charles Stanley
Take steps each day to be sure your life expresses commitment to Jesus.
Charles Stanley
The blood that poured from Christ's wounds bought your salvation. If you want to truly value what He did, think of Him hanging on that cross just for you. With that thought in your mind, consider how you should live. He gave Himself freely for you are you giving yourself fully to Him?
Charles Stanley
American foreign policy and military might have opened an opportunity for the Gospel in the land of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Charles Stanley
If you put your faith in yourself and your abilities, intellect and dreams, then your foundation is only as strong as you are.
Charles Stanley
The Holy Spirit's power cannot be harnessed. His power cannot be used to accomplish anything other than the Father's will. He is not a candy dispenser. He is not a vending machine. He is not a genie waiting for someone to rub His lamp the right way. He is holy God.
Charles Stanley
Brokenness is God’s requirement for maximum usefulness.
Charles Stanley
Our problems may stay, our circumstances may remain, but we know God is in control. We are focused on His adequacy, not our inadequacy.
Charles Stanley
We are the product of our thinking, so it is important that we choose carefully where to focus our mental energy.
Charles Stanley
God's plan for enlarging His kingdom is so simple - one person telling another about the Savior. Yet we're busy and full of excuses. Just remember, someone's eternal destiny is at stake. The joy you'll have when you meet that person in heaven will far exceed any discomfort you felt in sharing the gospel.
