Billy Graham

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, 'I love you.'

The wonderful news is that our Lord is a God of mercy, and He responds to repentance.

Don't ever hesitate to take to [God] whatever is on your heart. He already knows it anyway, but He doesn't want you to bear its pain or celebrate its joy alone.

God will not force himself upon us against our will. If we want his love, we need to believe in him. We need to make a definite, positive act of commitment and surrender to the love of God. No one can do it for us.

Success in God's eyes is faithfulness to His calling.

Heaven doesn't make this life less important; it makes it more important.

God has given us two hands - one to receive with and the other to give with. We are cisterns made for hoarding; we are channels made for sharing. If we fail to fulfill this divine duty and privilege we have missed the meaning of Christianity.

When Christians say God has been talking to them about something, it simply means they have a strong inner conviction or feeling that God has made His will known to them.

I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God's love for them in Christ.

Racism and injustice and violence sweep our world, bringing a tragic harvest of heartache and death.

We have an idea that we Americans are God's chosen people, that God loves us more than any other people, and that we are God's blessed. I tell you that God doesn't love us any more than He does the Russians.

God is more interested in your future and your relationships than you are.

Our chaotic, confused world has no greater need than to hear the message of good news - the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Scripture is filled with examples of men and women whom God used late in life, often with great impact - men and women who refused to use old age as an excuse to ignore what God wanted them to do.

The Bible says today is the accepted time, today is the day of salvation... But there will come a time when it will be too late for you.

We go on in our pleasures thinking they're going to last forever.

Christ not only died for all: He died for each.

For a married couple to expect perfection for each other is unrealistic.

Sincere Christians can disagree about the details of Scripture and theology - absolutely.

Without dark clouds in our lives, we would never know the joy of sunshine. We can become callous and unteachable if we do not learn from pain.

The born-again Christian sees life not as a blurred , confused, meaningless mass, but as something planned and purposeful.
