Members 1Timothy115 Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 Do you have any quotes from Christians which have encouraged or you found extremely uplifting for your Christian walk? I found the reference to McCheyne from reading Tozer's The Pursuit of God. While searching for 'McCheyne' I found The Biography of Robert Murray M'Cheyne (McCheyne) written by Andrew A. Bonar. Here's is the quotation of McCheyne found in the aforementioned biography... "It is a remarkable feeling to be quite alone in a desert place; it gives similar feelings to fasting; it brings God near." I thought it might be rewarding to hear from others with Christian quotations which have stirred their heart or spirit. Tozer himself is full of great quotes.

Members Musician4God1611 Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) “Beware of manufacturing a God of your own: a God who is all mercy, but not just; a God who is all love, but not holy; a God who has a heaven for every body, but a hell for none; a God who can allow good and bad to be side by side in time, but will make no distinction between good and bad in eternity. Such a God is an idol of your own, as truly an idol as any snake or crocodile in an Egyptian temple. The hands of your own fancy and sentimentality have made him. He is not the God of the Bible, and beside the God of the Bible there is no God at all.” - J. C.

He made the comment at a Men’s Advance several years ago, and it has stuck with me. I believe the actual quote was “Men you will either live a life of discipline or a life of regret.” Brother Wayne Hardy is in his early 50’s and is becoming a well-known speaker like his father Dr. Dave Hardy, now retired from pastoring but still preaching. http://mensadvance.org/ Alan and 1Timothy115 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 1Timothy115 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Members Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) "God cannot sustain this free and blessed country, which we love and pray for, unless the church will take right ground. Politics are a part of religion in such a country as this, and Christians must do their duty to the country as a part of their duty to God. It seems sometimes as if the foundations of the nation were becoming rotten, and Christians seem to act as if they thought God did not see what they do in politics. But I tell you, he does see it, and he will bless or curse this nation, according to the course they take." Lectures on Revivals of Religion, Lecture 15. Hinderances to Revivals, Charles G.
