Here are just a few of my favorite quotes.

 

"The Christian life can be explained only in terms of Jesus Christ,

and if your life as a Christian can still be explained in terms of you -

your personality, your willpower,

your gift, your talent,

your money, your courage,

your scholarship, your dedication,

your sacrifice, or your anything -

then although you may have the Christian life,

you are not yet living it."
-Ian Thomas

 

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep

to gain what he cannot lose."

-Jim Elliot

 

""God casts our sin into the depths of the sea,

and then He posts a sign that reads:
NO FISHING ALLOWED."

-Corrie ten Boom

 

"Life is not here [on earth],

but his above with Christ in God,

and therein I rejoice and sing as I think on such exaltation."

-Jim Elliot
