This page is a collection place for quotes. The quotes come from all different sources (books, messages, bumper stickers, other web sites, etc.), where I have those sources I will reference them. Some are serious, others not so much. I've been collecting these for over ten years (but not all on Blogspot). The very first entry is an accumulation of the first ten years.

From an article handed to me relationg to teenagers
As a believer, I see God's holy standard. I recognize that it is good, yet my heart wanders to fantasy worlds where I rule with no higher agenda than the pleasure of self. It is here that I am led to cry, "What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!" It is when I am confronted with my utter inability to meet the demands of God's standard that I am also confronted with the reality and majesty of His grace. "Where sin increased, grace increased all the more." — Paul Tripp "The Way of the Wise: Teaching Teenagers about Sex". The Journal of Biblical Counseling. Volume 13. Number 3. Spring 1995.

From another quote web site
The will of God will never take you to where the grace of God will not protect you. To gain that which is worth having, it may be necessary to lose everything else. — Bernadette Devlin

From a web site I came across
Christians must learn to distinguish between the words of a teacher, and the spirit behind those words. Often the purity and simplicity of the Gospel will be encroached upon by other teachings that, in aggregate, nullify the Gospel and lead the hearer astray into doctrines of demons (I Timothy 4:1). — Al Dager http://www.intotruth.org/res/kt1.html

From another web site
I do not feel obliged to believe that same God who endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect had intended for us to forgo their use. — Galileo
