Quotes from Billy Graham
“The will of God will not take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us.”
“God never takes away something from your life without replacing it with something better.” “Suppose you could gain everything in the whole world, and lost your soul. Was it worth it?” “There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.” “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.” “Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the world as much as adversity has.” “Knowing we will be with Christ forever far outweighs our burdens today! Keep your eyes on eternity!”
“God will prepare everything for our perfect happiness in heaven, and if it takes my dog being there, I believe he'll be there.”
“Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion – it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.” "Mountaintops are for views and inspiration, but fruit is grown in the valleys." “When we come to the end of ourselves, we come to the beginning of God." "The message I preach hasn't changed. Circumstances have changed. Problems have changed, but deep inside man has not changed and the gospel hasn't changed." "The only hope for enduring peace is Jesus Christ." “World events are moving very rapidly now. I pick up the Bible in one hand, and I pick up the newspaper in the other. And I read almost the same words in the newspaper as I read in the Bible. It’s being fulfilled every day round about us.” “Someone asked me recently if I didn’t think God was unfair, allowing me to have Parkinson’s and other medical problems when I have tried to serve him faithfully. I replied that I did not see it that way at all. Suffering is part of the human condition, and it comes to us all. The key is how we react to it, either turning away from God in anger and bitterness or growing closer to him in trust and confidence.” “The cross tells us that God understands our sin and our suffering, for he took them upon himself in the Person of Jesus Christ. From the cross God declares, 'I love you. I know the heartaches and the sorrows and the pain that you feel. But I love you.'
“The only time my prayers are never answered is on the golf course.”
“I’ve become an old man now. And I’ve preached all over the world. And the older I get, the more I cling to that hope that I started with many years ago, and proclaimed it in many languages to many parts of the world. ... I've read the last page of the Bible, it's all going to turn out all right.” Philippians 1:21
