Quotes from Billy Graham

God's purpose for us is that we ought to be conformed to the image of His Son. The world may exert its pressure to deform us, but we are told to "be transformed" [Romans 12:2 NIV].

Thousands of uninstructed Christians are being deceived today. False teachers use high-sounding words that seem like the epitome of scholarship and culture. They are intellectually clever and crafty . . .adept at beguiling thoughtless, untaught men and women.

The church should not reflect pop culture but portray godly attributes. The church should not seek pleasures but seek after God.

When one bears suffering faithfully, God is glorified and honored.

The Bible is God's love letter to us.

Today—and every day—put on the full armor of God to fight Satan's attacks, so you can and "be strong in the Lord" (Ephesians 6:10).

Jesus Christ was the Master Realist when He urged men to prepare for death, which was certain to come. Do not worry, said the Lord Jesus, about the death of the body, but rather concern yourself with the eternal death of the soul.

"Being" is far more important than "doing." When we are what we should be inside, we will bring forth fruit.

Christianity is being compared with other religions as never before. Some so-called Christian leaders even advocate the working out of a system of morals, ethics, and religion that would bring together all the religions of the world. It cannot be done. Jesus Christ is unique.

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