A man with God is always in the majority.

Without God, we cannot. Without us, God will not.

The world embarrasses me, and I cannot think that this watch exists and has no Watchmaker.

We trust not because "a God" exists, but because this God exists.

A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word "darkness" on the walls of his cell.

There is no creature so small and abject that it representeth not the goodness of God.

Art is the Tree of Life. Science is the Tree of Death. God is Jesus.

What matters supremely, therefore, is not, in the last analysis, the fact that I know God, but the larger fact which underlies it - the fact that He knows me.

God is not a sadist who hopes his creatures are miserable. Jesus was so fond of dinner parties that his detractors called him "a glutton and a drunkard" (Luke 7:34). Jesus turned water into wine to keep a party going.

If there were no God it would be necessary to invent Him.

God never gives us information about himself merely to satisfy our curiosity. All that we need to know about him is this life he has told us.

The permanence of God's character guarantees the fulfillment of his promises.

I used to ask God to help me. Then I asked if I might help Him. I ended up by asking Him to do His work through me.

The human genome will not help us to understand the spiritual side of humankind, or to know who God is or what love is. The well-heeled couple who decide they want to use genetics to have a child that is a gifted musician may end up with a sullen adolescent who smokes marijuana and doesn’t talk to them.

It must be asserted that petitionary prayer only flourishes where there is a twofold belief: that God's name is hallowed too irregularly, his kingdom has come too little, and his will is done too infrequently; second, that God himself can change this situation.

Let me burn out for God.

Live near to God, and so all things will appear to you little in comparison with eternal realites.

We are modern men, and modern men, though they cherish great thoughts of man, have as a rule small thoughts of God.

Amiable agnostics will talk cheerfully about "man's search for God." To me, as I then was, they might as well have talked about the mouse's search for the cat.

When God contemplates some great work, He begins it by the hand of some poor, weak, human creature, to whom He afterwards gives aid, so that the enemies who seek to obstruct it are overcome.

The Infinite Goodness has such wide arms that it takes whatever turns to it.

Thou hast made us for Thyself, and the heart of man is restless until it finds its rest in Thee.

We are all dangerous folk without God's controlling hand.

In the last analysis you cannot discuss God. You can only meet him, experience and obey him - or ignore and reject him.

Wherever the fear of God rules in the heart, it will appear both in works of charity and piety, and neither will excuse us from the other.

The more I know of astronomy, the more I believe in God.

It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.

IAs well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend th Eternal God.

There can be no degrees of deity; there is only one God.

Our calling is to enjoy God as well as glorify Him. Real fulfillment relates to the purpose for which we were made, to be in reference to God, to be in personal relationship with Him, to be fulfilled by Him, and thus to have an affirmation of life. Christianity should never give any onlooker the right to conclude that Christianity believes in the negation of life. Christianity is able to make a real affirmation because we affirm that it is possible to be in personal relationship to the personal God who is there and who is the final environment of all He created. All else but God is dependent, but being in the image of God, man can be in personal relationship to that which is ultimate and has always been. We can be fulfilled in the highest level of our personality and in all the parts and portions of life... There is nothing Platonic in Christianity... The whole man is to be fulfilled; there is to be an affirmation of life that is filled with joy. Death in the City (Downers Grove, InterVarsity Press: 1969) 26
