people church abnormal
The church is so subnormal that if it ever got back to the New Testament normal it would seem to people to be abnormal.
fighting church-today devil
The devil's not fighting churches today, he's joining churches.
believe church members
Plenty of church members are shaky about what they believe, while not many are shaken by what they believe.
order alcohol church
I'm tied of hearing about temperance instead of abstinence, in order to please the cocktail crowd in church congregations.
christian people church
In other days people chose a church on the basis of their doctrinal convictions. Now, lacking doctrinal convictions, they choose for social reasons.
christian church lasts
Don't ever come to church without coming as though it were the first time, as though it could be the best time, and as though it could be the last time.
church-service dull twelve
Too many church services start at eleven sharp and end at twelve dull.
prayer church thermometers
The thermometer of a church is its prayer meeting.
church firsts steps
The first step towards the evangelizing of the world is the christianizing of the church.
sunday games church
The same church members who yell like Comanche Indians at a ball game on Saturday sit like wooden Indians in church on Sunday.
church fellowship members
Most church members live so far below the standard, you would have to backslide to be in fellowship with them.
christian church march
If the church would only be the church- if Christians would only be Christians- nothing could halt our onward march.
christian people church
Most people would not want to live where there are no churches but many people live as though there were no churches.
christian two church-today
One of the greatest errors in the church today is the artificial distinction we have created between accepting Christ as Savior and confessing Him as Lord. We have made two experiences of it, but the New Testament makes them one.
