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
Rules without relationship leads to rebellion.
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
Belief is knowing what you believe. Conviction is knowing why you believe it.
Josh McDowell
Truth is objective because God exists outside ourselves it is universal because God is above all it is constant because God is eternal. Absolute truth is absolute because it originates from the original.
Josh McDowell
No matter how devastating our struggles, disappointments, and troubles are, they are only temporary. No matter what happens to you, no matter the depth of tragedy or pain you face, no matter how death stalks you and your loved ones, the Resurrection promises you a future of immeasurable good.
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
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
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
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
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
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
God created us, He created us for His glory, and He created us to have a relationship with Him, and He created us to be all that He desires us to be and He's jealous of that because He does not want to share that with others.
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
When it comes to my salvation, all I need is Jesus after my salvation, everything is Jesus plus the church... When people preach that all you need is Jesus, they cut you and I off from one of the greatest sources of healing, which is the body of Christ. Dont go it alone - you wont make it.
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
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
A lot of people say, well how can a loving God send anyone to hell? First of all God doesn't send anyone to hell. If we go to hell, it's by our own choice. But when somebody says to me, how can a loving God allow anyone to go to hell, I'll turn around and say, Well how can a holy, just, righteous God allow sin into His presence?
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
For centuries many of the world's distinguished philosophers have assaulted Christianity as being irrational, superstitious and absurd.
Josh McDowell
No matter how devastating our struggles, disappointments, and troubles are, they are only temporary.
