I gave you one book, and other quotes

The posting of quotes of human authors does not constitute agreement with either the quotes or their sources. (I try to confirm the sources that I give, but may miss on occasion; please verify if possible.)

“What if you get to heaven one day, then the God of all the universe tells you, ‘I gave you one book, and you mean to tell me you never managed to read it.’” -- Reta Dyess

“The LXX continues to be treated with a mystical reverence wholly out of proportion to its origins.” -- Peter Van Kleeck, Sr.

“We are not called to manage a goat farm. We are called to shepherd God’s sheep with God’s word.” -- Keith Foskey

“Influence is not unimportant, but it should never be all-important. The glory of God, not the influence of gifted men, governs the priorities for calling and appointing pastors.” -- Scott Hurst

“Never overestimate the power of one great sermon. Never underestimate the power of many good sermons week after week.” -- Ray Pritchard

“Money is not the solution to poverty when poverty is still rooted in the mind” -- Omotade Makinwa

“The poor are those ‘passing over opportunities repeatedly.’” -- Herman Johnson

“Paul was a ‘cross-eyed’ preacher.” -- Robert Smith, Jr.

“America is not gospel hardened. It is gospel ignorant because its preachers are gospel ignorant.” -- Paul Washer

“A church that elevates sexual orientation above the Scriptures is not loving, it’s lost.” -- Chad Prather

“If the Bible is no longer their authority, then the ‘church’ is no longer a church.” -- Chad Prather

“60% of the time it works every time.” -- Brian Fantana

“I believe in prayer, but the last place you want to be is on a Southern woman’s prayer chain. All that means is, ‘I will tell everybody your business.’ Amen.” -- J. J. Barrow

“God created man in his own image and ever since then man has been trying to return the favor.” -- Andrew Remillard (perhaps quoting someone else)
