“No gilded dome swells from the lowly roof to catch the morning or evening beam; but the love and gratitude of united America settle upon it in one eternal sunshine. From beneath that humble roof went forth the intrepid and unselfish warrior, the magistrate who knew no glory but his country's good; to that he returned, happiest when his work was done. There he lived in noble simplicity, there he died in glory and peace.” CountryDoneAmericaPeaceUnitedMorningGratitudeEternalGloryDiedSimplicityHumbleNobleWarriorEveningSettlingSunshineRoofBeamUnselfishMagistratesDomesLove And GratitudeGildedEternal Sunshine Author:Edward Everett Hale
“When James Calvert went out as a missionary to the cannibals of the Fiji Islands, the ship captain tried to turn him back, saying, "You will lose your life and the lives of those with you if you go among such savages". To that, Calvert replied, "We died before we came here". Believers who have the Gospel keep mumbling it over and over to themselves. Meanwhile, millions who have never heard it once fall into the flames of eternal hell without ever hearing the salvation story.” IfsStoriesTurnsFallLosesMillionsHellHeardEternalDiedSalvationHearingMissionsBelieverShipsFlamesIslandsMissionarySavagesCaptainsCannibalMissions In LifeGreat MissionaryInspirational MissionaryFijiMissionary Life Author:K.P.

“The late F. W. H. Myers used to tell how he asked a man at a dinner table what he thought would happen to him when he died. The man tried to ignore the question, but, on being pressed, replied: "Oh well, I suppose I shall inherit eternal bliss, but I wish you wouldn't talk about such unpleasant subjects."” MenWellsHappensUsedWishSubjectsHe ManEternalLateDiedTablesDinnerBlissWish YouDinner TableOh WellI Wish You Would Author:Bertrand Russell
“Are you still thirsting? Christ gives the invitation not only to others but to you. He is the fountainhead. He has died and is risen. He offers the only way to eternal life, asking only that you admit your need, raise the empty hands of faith, and accept His gift. What is eternal life? It is meaning in life now as well as living one‚s life forever. Drink deep. Jesus offers a brimming cup.” WayNeedsGivingWellsStillsHandsJesusChristAcceptingForeverDrinkOffersEternalEmptyDiedAskingRaisesCupsInvitationsEternal LifeRisenMeaning LifeFountainheadEmpty Hands Author:Francis Schaeffer

“Submit to death, death of your ambitions and favorite wishes every day and death of your whole body in the end: submit with every fiber of your being, and you will find eternal life.

“Tell me there is a God in the serene heavens that will damn his children for the expression of an honest belief! More men have died in their sins, judged by your orthodox creeds, than there are leaves in all the forests in the wide world ten thousand times over. Tell me these men are in Hell; that these men are in torment; that these children are in eternal pain, and that they are to be punished forever and forever! I denounce this doctrine as the most infamous of lies.” MenWorldChildrenPainLyingReligionBeliefHeavenSinHellForeverAtheismHonestExpressionThousandTenEternalDiedAtheistWideForestsDoctrineDamnOrthodoxJudgedCreedsTormentSereneInfamousAnti Religious Book:The Works of Robert G.
