More quotes by Josh McDowell
Whenever you do judge, the only basis of judgment is not your own perspective or anything else, it's the very character and nature of God and that's why we are to allow Him to exercise His justice, where I personally want to take it upon myself.
Josh McDowell
The first thing that stuck in the minds of the disciples was not the empty tomb, but rather the empty grave clothes - undisturbed in form and position.
Josh McDowell
I once had a lot of hatred, mainly toward my father, an alcoholic.
Josh McDowell
On that Sunday morning the first thing that impressed the people who approached the tomb was the unusual position of the one and a half to two ton stone that had been lodged in front of the doorway.
Josh McDowell
Love can wait to give it is lust that can't wait to get.
Josh McDowell
My joy in life is not because I have not had any problems. I have joy because I have learned there is nothing too great for Gods power to deal with, nor anything too small or insignificant for His love to be concerned about.
Josh McDowell

We may very well wake up in the not-too-distant future in a culture that is not only unreceptive but openly hostile to the church and the gospel of Jesus Christ, a culture in which those who proclaim the gospel will be labeled as bigots and fanatics, a culture in which persecution of Christians will be not only allowed but applauded.
Josh McDowell

Josh McDowell
Both Jewish and Roman sources and traditions admit an empty tomb.
Josh McDowell
The downfall of the church will not come from a lack of apologetic teaching it will come from disintegration of the families in the church.
Josh McDowell
You can laugh at Christianity you can mock and ridicule it. But it works. It changes lives. If you trust Christ, start watching your attitudes and actions, because Jesus Christ is in the business of changing lives.
Josh McDowell
How do you spell love?... when you reach the point where the happiness, security and development of another person is as much of a driving force to you as your own happiness, security, and development, then you have a mature love. True love is spelled G-I-V-E. It is not based on what you can get, but rooted in what you can give to the other person.
Josh McDowell
The Christian faith is faith in Christ. Its value or worth is not in the one believing but in the One believed - not in the one trusting, but in the One trusted.
Josh McDowell
Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.
Josh McDowell
Prayer is talking with God. God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as He is with the attitude of your heart.
Josh McDowell
We no longer live in a post-Christian society, we live in an anti-Christian society, one in which the Christian faith is dismissed or ridiculed and Christians are considered suspect and their motives and behavior berated.
Josh McDowell
Every kid needs to say, 'I want what my mom and dad have.’
Josh McDowell
Having convictions can be defined as being so thoroughly convinced that Christ and His Word are both objectively true and relationally meaningful that you act on your beliefs regardless of the consequences.
