“I believe in the premillenial, pre-tribulational coming of Christ for all of his church, and to summarize that, your first poll, do you believe Jesus coming the second time will be in the future, I would vote yes with the 59 percent and with Billy Graham and most evangelicals.” FirstsBelieveJesusI BelieveChristChurchPercentVoteI Believe InApocalypsePolls Author:Jerry Falwell
“I met too frankly preposterous, if it weren't for their banal evil, politicians and pastors who told knowing lies about the evils of homosexuality in order to attract bigger flocks to their churches and more votes and power to their corrupt councils. LGBT people seem to be being scapegoated more and more just as at the same time in more enlightened countries more and more freedom to express themselves, marry, be given official intersex status and so on is offered.” PeopleIfsCountrySeemsLyingOrderEvilGivenChurchKnowingPoliticianMetsVoteBiggerOfficialsEnlightenedLgbtHomosexualityPastorCouncilFlocksIntersex Author:Stephen Fry
“Look at the Metropolitan Community Church today, the gay church, almost accepted into the World Council of Churches. Almost, the vote was against them. But they will try again and again until they get in, and the tragedy is that they would get one vote. Because they are spoken of here in Jude as being brute beasts, that is going to the baser lust of the flesh to live immorally, and so Jude describes this as apostasy. But thank God this vile and satanic system will one day be utterly annihilated and there'll be a celebration in heaven.” WorldTryingLooksHumorTodayHeavenCommunityChurchReligiousGayOne DayVoteTragedyFleshAcceptedLustBeastThank GodCelebrationAgain And AgainCouncilBrutesTry AgainSatanicMetropolitanChurch TodayApostasy Author:Jerry Falwell
“Corruption, the most infallible symptom of constitutional liberty, was successfully practised; honours, gifts, and immunities were offered and accepted as the price of an episcopal vote; and the condemnation of the Alexandrian primate was artfully represented as the only measure which could restore the peace and union of the catholic church.” ChurchLibertyHistoryVoteCatholicUnionsCorruptionAcceptedHonourSymptomsCatholic ChurchCondemnationRoman EmpireInfallibleImmunityPrimates Book:The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Source: The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire
“There was the strangest combination of church influence against me. Baker is a Campbellite; and therefore, as I suppose with few exceptions, got all of that Church. My wife had some relations in the Presbyterian churches, and some in the Episcopal churches; and therefore, wherever it would tell, I was set down as either one or the other, while it was everywhere contended that no Christian ought to vote for me because I belonged to no Church, and was suspected of being a Deist and had talked of fighting a duel.” ChristianFightingChurchWifeAtheismInfluenceOughtVoteRelationPositive AtheismMy WifeCombinationExceptionBakersPresbyteriansDeistVote For Me Author:Abraham Lincoln

“For the church to say that abortion is not acceptable for a Catholic is fine.
