“Human life is but of brief duration. 'All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God shall stand forever' (Isa. 40:6, 8). Let us hold fast to the commandment that abides, and despise the unreality that passes away.” HumansChristianLife IsForeverFieldsFlowerFleshHuman LifeGrassOrthodoxDespiseFadesCommandmentsOrthodox ChristianPassing AwayDurationHold FastUnreality Author:Saint Basil
“No power of earth, or hell, men or devils, can possibly stand against the word of God; and hence it is the very height of folly and wild madness for any one to set up his thoughts or reasonings in opposition to the plain statements of Holy Scripture; and, on the other hand, it is the beginning and end of all true wisdom to submit in all things to the absolute authority of that Word which is settled forever in Heaven.” MenEndsHandsEarthChristianHeavenHellForeverHolyAuthorityDevilAll ThingsMadnessAbsolutesScriptureStatementsHeightReasoningFollyOppositionWord Of GodSubmitHoly ScripturesTrue WisdomBeginnings And Ends Author:Charles Henry Mackintosh
“Adulterers, in the first stages of the church, were excommunicated forever, and unqualified all their lives for bearing a part in Christian assemblies, notwithstanding they might seek it with tears, and all the appearances of the most unfeigned repentance.” FirstsMightChristianChurchForeverStageTearsAppearanceRepentanceAdulteryAssemblyUnqualified Author:Joseph Addison
“Dear lost sinner, if you are a wicked sinner, yet you do not have to die and go to Hell forever. If you are a criminal or a harlot, a blasphemer, a drunkard, a convict, or a dope fiend, God does not want you to go to Hell. People do not go to Hell simply because they are sinners. Rather they go because they will not repent of their sins! If you today will confess your sins to God, and in your poor, helpless heart, will, as far as you know how, turn away from your sin, God will have mercy and will forgive and save.” PeopleIfsKnowsWantHeartDoeGodTodayChristianDiesTurnsLostReligiousSinPoorLordKnow HowHellForeverForgivenessMercyForgivingDearCriminalsChristian InspirationalGods WillWickedSinnerRepentanceEditorsTrust In GodConfessionHelplessPastorRepentAlcoholicsConfidence In GodDopeGo To HellGod Within UsMighty GodDrunkardsConvictsConnecting With GodSave YourselfGod Help MeHarlots Book:The Ruin of a Christian Source: The Ruin of a Christian
“The most beautiful conception of immortality of which I know, and certainly one that by contrast shows the utter vulgarity of Christian ideas, is set forth in Pindar's second Olympian: after three or six lives in which a man has lived with strict justice and perfect integrity, he passes beyond the tower of Cronus to the fair realm that cannot be reached by land or sea, where gentle breezes from a placid ocean blow forever on the fields of asphodel. For a description, see Pindar. If the beauty of great poetry can commend a religion, here you have it.” IfsKnowsMenIdeasShowsChristianBeautifulThreeJusticePerfectForeverSeaLandFieldsIntegrityOceanSixFairsBlowGentleImmortalityRealmsDescriptionConceptionContrastTowersStrictBreezeVulgarityGreat PoetOlympianGreat PoetryPlacid Author:Revilo P.

“Think of the majesty of that moment in this dying world's history, when Jesus Christ declared that to the Christian death was only a sleep. Outside of that small dwelling in Capernaum, a great race of men rushed and toiled as they harassed continents and seas; mighty events marshaled themselves into annals and pageants. What was inside? In one inconspicuous chamber of a now forgotten house, man's Redeemer, unobserved, martyred man's final enemy. There Immanuel subdued death forever.” ThinkingMenWorldMomentsChristianHouseJesusChristSleepRaceEnemyForeverSeaDyingEventsJesus ChristFinalsForgottenThat MomentContinentsChamberMajestyDwellingRedeemerPageantMartyredGreat Race Author:Charles Seymour Robinson
