More quotes by Dwight L. Moody

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.
Dwight L. Moody

Dwight L. Moody

Dwight L. Moody

Dwight L. Moody
If a man gets drunk and goes out and breaks his leg so that it must be amputated, God will forgive him if he asks it, but he will have to hop around on one leg all his life.
Dwight L. Moody
Trust in yourself and you are doomed to disappointment trust in money and you may have it taken from you, but trust in God, and you are never to be confounded in time or eternity.
Dwight L. Moody
Christ came down to save us from a terrible hell, and any man who is cast down to hell from here must go in the full blaze of the gospel, and over the mangled body of the Son of God.
Dwight L. Moody
If we have got the true love of God shed abroad in our hearts, we will show it in our lives. We will not have to go up and down the earth proclaiming it. We will show it in everything we say or do.
Dwight L. Moody
Every one of our children will be brought into the ark, if we pray and work earnestly for them.
Dwight L. Moody
More depends on my walk than talk.
Dwight L. Moody
We may easily be too big for God to use, but never too small.
Dwight L. Moody
As I go into a cemetery I like to think of the time when the dead shall rise from their graves. ... Thank God, our friends are not buried they are only sown!
Dwight L. Moody
Whatever you love more than God is your idol.
Dwight L. Moody
