Great quotes

I am one of those that gets really impacted by the ability some people have to make witty, inteligent comments or to state things in a concise, memorable way. I'm going to post a few now, but this is a post that I plan to keep coming back to and adding every great quote I come across. Here is a few of my favorites:


"Christianity: A life of painful joy" (sermon title)
Pastor Joe Lamay


"We are in the business of feeding sheep, not entertaining goats."
Charles H. Spurgeon


"Loves Thee too little he who loves anything together with Thee that he loves not for Thy sake."
Augustine.


"I am too busy NOT TO pray."
Martin Luther


"Bad preaching gets applause. Good preaching gets questions." (Sermon Title) (This is the statement that prompted me to post this. I, as of now, haven't heard the sermon though.)
Pastor Tim Conway

"Soft preaching produces hard people, hard preaching produces soft people."
John MacArthur, T4G '08. The sinner: Neither willing nor able.

Till the next quote.
