The preaching that this world needs most is the sermons in shoes that are walking with Jesus Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
It is a favorite thing with infidels to set their own standard, to measure themsleves by other people. But that will not do in the Day of Judgment. Now we will use God's law as a balance weight.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
We can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
God has cast our confessed sins into the depths of the sea, and He's even put a 'No Fishing' sign over the spot.

I believe the religion of Christ covers the whole man. Why shouldn't a man play baseball or lawn-tennis? ... Don't imagine that you have got to go into a cave to be consecrated, and stay there all your life. Whatever you take up, take it up with all your heart.

I cannot convert men I can only proclaim the Gospel

I am glad there are things in the Bible I do not understand. If I could take that book up and read it as I would any other book, I might think I could write a book like that.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Is there any reason why you should not have faith in God? Has God ever broken one of His promises? I defy any infidel or unbeliever to place a finger on a single promise of God ever made and failed to fulfill.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me.
Dwight L. Moody

There will be no peace in any soul until it is willing to obey the voice of God.

I never yet have known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided.

If God did not want us to understand the book of Revelation, He would not have given it to us at all.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
We have got nowadays so that we divide lies into white lies and black lies, society lies and business lies, etc. The Word of God knows no such letting-down of the standard.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Seeking to perpetuate one's name on earth is like writing on the sand by the seashore to be perpetual it must be written on eternal shores.

Image
Salvation is worth working for. It is worth a man's going round the world on his hands and knees, climbing its mountains, crossing its valleys, swimming its rivers, going through all manner of hardship in order to attain it. But we do not get it in that way. It is to him who believes.
