I've never had anyone define purity. You probably can't define purity. Purity is to live according to original design.

More quotes by Josh McDowell
I am not a Christian because God changed my life I am a Christian because of my convictions about who Jesus Christ is.
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
Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.
Josh McDowell
Most Christians are not convinced of their own faith. I would say 90 percent of Christians do not have a worldview, in other words a view of the world, based on the Scripture and a relationship with God. And so they cannot discern between the truth and falsehood.
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
My greatest asset now is my focus.
Josh McDowell
Leaders of the world's religions said, 'What do you think about what I teach?' Jesus said, 'Who do you say I am?'(Luke 9:20)
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
If they had connived a scheme, and Christ had not been raised from the dead, where would have been the hardest place on the face of the earth to convince anyone? In Jerusalem.
Josh McDowell
One who claimed what Jesus claimed about himself couldn't be a good moral man or a prophet. That option isn't open to us, and Jesus never intended it to be.
Josh McDowell
What you are as a single person, you will be as a married person, only to a greater degree. Any negative character trait will be intensified in a marriage relationship, because you will feel free to let your guard down -- that person has committed himself to you and you no longer have to worry about scaring him off.
Josh McDowell
Belief is knowing what you believe. Conviction is knowing why you believe it.
Josh McDowell
Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.
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
I would say 90 percent of Christians do not have a worldview, in other words a view of the world, based on the Scripture and a relationship with God.
Josh McDowell
Rules without relationship leads to rebellion.
Josh McDowell
Love can wait to give it is lust that can't wait to get.
Josh McDowell
Jesus claimed He had the power to raise himself from the dead and His followers would be raised from the dead. That's a unique claim in the literature of religion.
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.
Josh McDowell
I once had a lot of hatred, mainly toward my father, an alcoholic.
Josh McDowell
