Great/inspirational quotes

“There are far too many who think that faith is a long lever that we can use to pry things out of God. It is believed that if a man can lay hold of that mysterious thing called ‘faith’ that he can get God to bless with success every wild scheme and project that he sets out to accomplish. When they fail they usually whimper the childish excuse that they did not have faith enough, initiating that if they had worked up a little more faith they would have succeeded.”

The word religion occurs but four times in the entire Bible. We trace it back to the Latin religio, meaning to bind or obligate. It conveys the sense of duty. Its realm is the outward: religious ceremony, service, conduct. In the Bible it is chiefly synonymous with Judaism, degraded to a religion in Christ’s day. It was religion that put Christ on the cross. The world’s religions all fail in this: they have no divine person capable of imparting life. The word religion seemingly never escaped the lips of Jesus. He did not come to found a religion but to bring life. Religion is man striving after God. Jesus brought God to man, and man to God.

"She told me to touch her in a way she never felt before. So I started reaching for her soul."

The problem isn’t that Johnny can’t read.
The problem isn’t even that Johnny can’t think.
The problem is that Johnny doesn’t know what thinking is.
He confuses it with feeling.

Is the love we bear our kindred a weakness of our earthly natures? Shall we drop it, in the resurrection? Nay, love is divine. It infuses into this life whatever there is of Heaven. It will constitute the atmosphere of the better land, for “God is love.” And, if one soul should fail of admission there, it would sadden all Heaven, nay, it would send a pang through the heart of God.

Daniel Parker Livermore (1818-1899)
Publisher and editor of the periodical The New Covenant
Voices of the Faith (1887)
