More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
Life is very sweet to me, and there is no position of power or wealth that could tempt me from the throne God has given me.
Dwight L. Moody
What makes the Dead Sea dead? Because it is all the time receiving, never giving out anything. Why is it that many Christians are cold? Because they are all the time receiving, never giving out anything.
Dwight L. Moody
There is no harder lesson for man to learn than the lesson of humility. It is the rarest of all gifts. It is a very rare thing to find a man or woman that is following closely the footsteps of the Master in meekness and humility.
Dwight L. Moody
Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.
Dwight L. Moody
Everybody wants to enjoy heaven after they die, but they don't want to be heavenly-minded while they live.
Dwight L. Moody
It is our privilege to know that we are saved.
Dwight L. Moody
I know I have a first-rate mind, but that`s no source of pride to me. Intelligent people are a dime a dozen. But I am proud of having character.
Dwight L. Moody
As a dead man cannot inherit an estate, no more can a dead soul inherit heaven. The soul must be resurrected in Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
I now opened my Bible and began to study, and faith has been growing ever since.
Dwight L. Moody
No man can resolve himself into Heaven.
Dwight L. Moody
No one should ever preach on the topic of hell without a tear in his eye.
Dwight L. Moody
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
In Proverbs we read: 'He that winneth souls is wise.' If any man, women, or child by a godly life and example can win one soul to God, his life will not have been a failure. He will have outshone all the mighty men of his day, because he will have set a stream in motion that will flow on and on forever and ever.
Dwight L. Moody
No man ever sought Christ with a heart to find Him who did not find Him.
Dwight L. Moody
The preaching that this world needs most is the sermons in shoes that are walking with Jesus Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.
Dwight L. Moody
A good many preachers say I am lowering the pulpit. I am glad I am. I am trying to get it down to the level of men's hearts. If I wanted to hit Chicago I would not put the cannon on the top of this building and fire into the air. Too many preachers fire into the air.
Dwight L. Moody
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.
Dwight L. Moody
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
Dr. Bonar once said that he could tell when a Christian was growing. In proportion to his growth in grace he would elevate his Master, talk less of what he himself was doing, and become smaller and smaller in his own esteem, until, like the morning star, he faded away before the rising sun.
