Thomas Jefferson Firearms Quotes & Sayings

Listen to yourself speak, saying, "The knowledge of God has no practical application." Do you know why all your Christian bookstores are filled up with self-help books, and five ways to do this or that, and six ways to be godly, and 10 ways not to fall? - because people don't know God! And so they have to be given all sorts of trivial little devices of the flesh to keep them walking as sheep ought to walk!

It is a lack of the knowledge of God! — Paul David Washer

She wasn't going anywhere now; she was simply bobbing up and down with the rhythm of the water - and she hadn't blinked in a long while. — A.J. Waines

When did I ever betray you?
When did I ever leave you alone? — Yuuki Obata

In the presence of grandparent and grandchild, past and future merge in the present. — Margaret Mead

In closing, to those who have closed the door on religion - I was recently asked by a non-Christian friend if I thought he was going to hell. I said, 'I hope not. It will be hard to enjoy heaven without you.' If those of us who believe in God do not believe God's grace is big enough to save the whole world ... well, we should at least pray that it is. — Shane Claiborne
