Image
Ministers often preach about the Gospel instead of preaching the Gospel. They often preach about sinners instead of preaching to them.
Charles Grandison Finney
Image
Ministers of God's choosing are engaged in a great work. They are warring not merely against men, but Satan and his angels.
Ellen G. White
Image
Ministers should be Bible students. They should thoroughly furnish themselves with the evidences of our faith and hope, and then, with full control of the voice and their feelings, present these evidences in such a manner that the people can calmly weigh them, and decide upon the evidences presented.
Ellen G. White
Image
Ministers should not pray so loud, and long, as to exhaust the strength. It is not necessary to weary the throat and lungs in prayer. God's ear is ever open to hear the heart-felt petitions of his humble servants, and he does not require them to wear out the organs of speech in addressing him.
Ellen G. White
Image
Ministers who do not spend two hours a day in prayer are not worth a dime a dozen - degrees or no degrees.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Ministers who threaten death and destruction employ weapons of weakness. Argument and kindness are alone effectual, flavored by the principles of Divine love.
Hosea Ballou
Image
Ministers and merchants love nobody.
Thomas Jefferson
Image
Ministers regularly meet soldiers that have returned from operational tours to hear about their experiences, including those who have recovered from their injuries.
Geoff Hoon
Image
Ministers never write or preach so well as when under the cross.
George Whitefield
Image
Ministers should be stars to give light, not clouds to obscure.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Ministers have received their wages, and some have their minds too much on their wages. They labor for wages, and lose sight of the sacredness and importance of the work.
Ellen G. White
Image
Ministers should impress upon the people the necessity of individual effort. No church can flourish unless its members are workers. The people must lift where the ministers lift.
Ellen G. White
Image
Ministers must not be able to set rules governing solicitors on a whim, to suit their own requirements.
Kevin Martin
Image
Ministers must read. We are required to read not as a luxury but as a necessity.
Haddon W. Robinson
Image
Ministers fall like buttered slices of bread: usually on their good side.
Ludwig Borne
Image
How's our young guest? he asked. As docile as any child could be, wearing a drug-delivery system as she is, said one of the ministers. She constantly demands to see her mother, said another, and somewhat less constantly demands that we return her homburg to her.
Frank Beddor
Image
Some ministers say, 'If you don't repent you'll die and go to a place the name of which I can't pronounce.' I can! You'll go to hell!
Billy Sunday
Image
The first ministers were the twelve disciples. There is no evidence that Jesus chose them because they are brighter or nicer than other people. Their sole qualification seems to have been their initial willingness to rise to their feet when Jesus said, Follow me.
Frederick Buechner
Image
When a nation is over-reliant on one or two commodities like oil or precious minerals, corrupt government ministers and their dodgy associates hoard profits and taxes instead of properly allocating them to schools and hospitals.
Bono
Image
Why is it that the Rev. Jesse Jackson can quote the Bible in support of his pet causes, but conservative ministers and lay people must argue purely on secular grounds for their social and political agenda?... It seems that mixing religion and politics is acceptable as long as the road turns to the left.
Gary DeMar
Image
New Zealand, by the way, where I was ambassador, has had two women prime ministers - one from either party.
Carol Moseley Braun
Image
Hostesses who entertain much must make up their parties as ministers make up their cabinets, on grounds other than personal liking.
George Eliot
Image
Would ministers preach for eternity! They would then act the part of true Christian orators, and not only calmly and cooly inform the understanding, but, by persuasive, pathetic address, endeavour to move the affections and warm the heart.
George Whitefield
Image
It is a very solemn delusion when ministers think they are prospering, and yet do not hear of conversions.
Charles Spurgeon
