“People in the United States, including me, are naturally inclined to support Israel. I'm an evangelical Christian who teaches the Bible every Sunday at my church. I teach half the Old Testament and half the New Testament. We Americans identify the Hebrews, the Israelites, with ourselves.” PeopleStatesChristianChurchUnitedHalfTeachUnited StatesSupportIncludingIsraelSundayTestamentNew TestamentOld TestamentEvangelicalHebrew Author:Jimmy Carter
“It takes more than a busy church, a friendly church, or even an evangelical church to impact a community for Christ. It must be a church ablaze, led by leaders who are ablaze for God.” ChristCommunityChurchLeaderImpactBusyFriendlyEvangelical Book:Ablaze for God Source: Ablaze for God
“As in 1925, creationists are not battling for religion. They have been disowned by leading church men of all persuasions, for they debase religion even more than they misconstrue science. They are a motley collection to be sure, but their core of practical support lies with the evangelical right, and creationism is a mere stalking horse or subsidiary issue in a political program...The enemy is not fundamentalism; it is intolerance. In this case, the intolerance is perverse since it masquerades under the 'liberal' rhetoric of 'equal time'.” MenHas BeensPoliticalLyingReligionChurchEnemyCasesSupportIssuesEqualProgramHorseMereCorePracticalsCollectionsIntoleranceRhetoricFundamentalismPersuasionStalkingEvangelicalCreationismMasquerade Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“I owe my nurture to evangelicalism. The evangelical wins hands down in the history of the church when it comes to nurturing a biblically literate laity. When we think of evangelism, evangelicals are the most resourceful, the most intrepid, and the most creative. But evangelicals themselves would say that they have never come to grips with what the whole mystery of the church is.” ThinkingWholeHandsWinningChurchCreativeMysteryNurtureEvangelismNurturingEvangelicalResourceful Author:Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk

“While we destroyed the Centre Party, we have not only brought thousands of priests back into the Church, but to millions of respectable people we have restored their faith in their religion and in their priests. The union of the Evangelical Church in a single Church for the whole Reich, the Concordat with the Catholic Church, these are but milestones on the road which leads to the establishment of a useful relation and a useful co operation between the Reich and the two Confessions.” PeopleTwoWholeChurchPartyMillionsAtheismRelationCatholicUnionsDestroyedOperationsPriestsEstablishmentConfessionCentreRespectableCatholic ChurchEvangelicalMilestone Book:The Speeches of Adolf Hitler: April 1922-August 1939 Source: The Speeches of Adolf Hitler: April 1922-August 1939
