Top Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Douglas Hurd

We, Britain and Germany, can neither of us be happy about our handling of the Iraq war. — Douglas Hurd

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Chris Hedges

But this new class seeks to reduce the American working class to the levels of this global serfdom. After all, anything that drains corporate coffers is a loss of freedom
the God-given American freedom to exploit other human beings to make money. The marriage of this gospel of prosperity with raw, global capitalism, and the flaunting of the wealth and privilege it brings, are supposedly blessed and championed by Jesus Christ. Compassion is regulated to private, individual acts of charity or left to the churches. The callousness of the ideology, the notion that it in any way reflects the message of the gospels, which were preoccupied with the poor and the outcasts, illustrates how the new class has twisted Christian scripture to serve America's god of capitalism and discredited the Enlightenment values we once prized. — Chris Hedges

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Terry Eagleton

The form of life Jesus offers his followers is not one of social integration but a scandal to the priestly and political establishment. It is a question of being homeless, propertyless, peripatetic, celibate, socially marginal, disdainful of kinsfolk, averse to material possessions, a friend of outcasts and pariahs, a thorn in the side of the Establishment and a scourge of the rich and powerful. Indeed, Pierre Bayle points to this fact as an argument against the political necessity of religious faith. Christianity, he remarks, is no basis for civil order, since Jesus proclaims that he has come to pitch society into turmoil.47 — Terry Eagleton

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Jane Smiley

In his 30 years of broadcasting and publishing fiction, Garrison Keillor has set the laugh bar pretty high. — Jane Smiley

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Mel White

If there is any one message the Bible delivers, it is the message that God loves outcasts and that Jesus was born into the world an outcast to rescue and renew outcasts from religion gone bad. He was born poor and died poor, yet the legacy of love he left us, the legacy of inclusion and acceptance and understanding, will endure forever. — Mel White

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Jerry Uelsmann

The goal of the artist is not to resolve life's mysteries, but to deepen them. — Jerry Uelsmann

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By John Ortberg

Jesus ... associated with the outcasts; he spoke with them, touched them, ate with them, loved them. — John Ortberg

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Terry Eagleton

Jesus hung out with whores and social outcasts, was remarkably casual about sex, disapproved of the family... urged us to be laid-back about property and possessions, warned his followers that they too would die violently, and insisted that the truth kills and divides as well as liberates. He also cursed self-righteous prigs and deeply alarmed the ruling class — Terry Eagleton

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Barbara Cofer Stoefen

I sometimes think the recovery community is a picture of what the church should look like. I've experienced the Spirit of God hovering in those recovery rooms as a palpable presence, bringing healing to those who struggle and who submit to their higher power. It's my belief that Jesus, my Higher Power, hears those prayers, whether or not they know his name. His favorite people were, after all, the most broken among us - the outcasts, the misfits, the sick, and, yes, the addicts. — Barbara Cofer Stoefen

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By A.R. Rahman

Comedy is a universal language. I grew up watching Nagesh, Surilirajan, Thenga Srinivasan and S.V. Shekhar's comedies. And, of course, Charlie Chaplin! These artists are so blessed: they can make other people happy. — A.R. Rahman

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Samuel Butler

If you follow reason far enough it always leads to conclusions that are contrary to reason. — Samuel Butler

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By John Green

Muhammad brought the promise that anyone could find fulfillment and everlasting life through allegiance to the one true God. The Buddah held out hope that the suffering could be transcended. Jesus brought the message that even the last shall be first, that even the tax collectors and lepers - the outcasts - had cause for hope. And so that is the question I leave you with in this final: What is your cause for hope. — John Green

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Scott Baio

One thing I won't be doing on a weekend is shopping. I just don't like it, and I haven't bought an article of clothing for a very long time. I usually just take wardrobe from shows I'm on. It's much easier. — Scott Baio

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Donald Miller

I began to wonder if what we were doing it evangelical circles had more to do with redeeming ourselves to culture than it did with showing Jesus to a hurting world, a world literally filled with outcasts. — Donald Miller

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Mark Steyn

We're told the old-school imperialists were racists, that they thought of the wogs as inferior. But, if so, they at least considered them capable of improvement. The multiculturalists are just as racist. The only difference is that they think the wogs can never reform: Good heavens, you can't expect a Muslim in Norway not to go about raping the womenfolk! Much better just to get used to it. — Mark Steyn

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Dean Brackley

From the time of Constantine, when the church allied with secular power, the mainline churches often lost sight of the centrality of prophetic witness and consequent persecution to their calling. Now that most Christians live in poor countries, the church of the poor South challenges Christians elsewhere to break their alliance with the powerful and cast their lot with the outcasts, as Jesus did. For those who wish to speak of God today, standing with the victims is the price of credibility. — Dean Brackley

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Mel White

When you stand with the outcasts, you stand with Jesus, and when you despise the outcast, you despise Jesus, as well. Becoming an activist is simply a matter of putting love into action. — Mel White

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By John Green

Islam, Christianity, and Buddhism each have founder figures - Muhammad, Jesus, and the Buddha, respectively. And in thinking about these founder figures, I believe we must finally conclude that each brought a message of radical hope. To seventh-century Arabia, Muhammad brought the promise that anyone could find fulfillment and everlasting life through allegiance to the one true God. The Buddha held out hope that suffering could be transcended. Jesus brought the message that the last shall be first, that even the tax collectors and lepers - the outcasts - had cause for hope. And so that is the question I leave you — John Green

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Philip Yancey

Jesus was a master of grace: he attracted sinners and moral outcasts even as he offended the religious and responsible people of his day. — Philip Yancey

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Justin Lee

This is disturbing news for all of us in the Christian community. Jesus wasn't known for his disdain for people; he was known for his unconditional love for everyone, especially outcasts and sinners. One of the charges Jesus' opponents had against him was that he was "a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners."2 Surely the faith he founded should never be known for looking down on anyone. — Justin Lee

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Gregory J. Boyle

Success and failure, ultimately, have little to do with living the gospel. Jesus just stood with the outcasts until they were welcomed or until he was crucified - whichever came first. — Gregory J. Boyle

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Maajid Nawaz

Rather than allowing jihadists to shut down debate, it must proliferate so much that they simply cannot kill us all. — Maajid Nawaz

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Kara Lindsay

I'd always wanted to be on Broadway one day, but it seemed like a dream that might be unattainable. This business has a lot of ups and downs and I learned that pretty quickly. — Kara Lindsay

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Kevin Kwan

As a child, I could bike down the hill from my house and grab an ice-cold bottle of soda from the neighborhood grocer, which was nothing more than a corrugated metal shack run by two Indian men clad in sarongs. — Kevin Kwan

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Chris Pavone

This is the expat life: you never know when someone you see every day is going to disappear forever, instantly transmogrifying into a phantom. Before long you won't be able to remember her last name, the color of her eyes, the grades that her children were in. You can't imagine not seeing her tomorrow. You can't imagine you yourself being one of those people, someone who one day just vanishes. But you are. — Chris Pavone

Jesus And The Outcasts Quotes By Nicholas Mosley

If they tell the police, the police will find out she was driving, and her career will be put into hell. — Nicholas Mosley
