Christian wisdom quotes
1) “To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.”
-Martin Luther
Prayer is about becoming in harmony with God through asking for God of what we dearly want. It involves praise, adoration, thanksgiving, confession, and lament, and if only one is missing, then we are not to be in the ready stance of prayer. Just like living isn't only about breathing, the same goes for prayer. Life isn't about how many breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away. Therefore, prayer is all about building an intimate relationship with God.
2) “The Christian Bible is a symbolic book, not a literal one. The one Christians know as Jesus was actually a symbol for the sun. Ancient sun worshippers believed the sun died at the end of the winter solstice and then three days later it would be reborn at the start of its cycle - December 25.”
-David Icke
The Christian Bible is a symbolic book, in the sense that it is about idea, feeling, or quality rather than just its literal meaning. It is why the book cover is made out of leather and is the best selling book worldwide. Before Jesus was born and crucified on he cross the sun symbolized God, and through the voice of God the Bible was written by Jesus' disciples. God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one in trinity. It isn't about understanding how this is possible but it is about firm belief, for, that's the core of Christianity. To say that Ancient sun worshippers believed the sun died at the end of the winter solstice and then three days later it would be reborn at the start of its cycle it is to say that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and three days He resurrected from the dead and risen of Heaven on December 25th, which is Jesus' birthday.
3) “I'm a Christian, but I don't believe in religion or anything like that.”
-Vanilla Ice
Christianity is not a religion, for, it is the ultimate true way of life. This is how it differs from all other religions of all kinds. Many nonbelievers believe Christianity to be just another religion, because it is just another perspective of who and what God is to them, but to Christianity Christianity serves the one and only God, and He really exists. We can know of God's existence through how we live our life and we serve and praise Him through our way of life. Therefore Christianity and life isn't a separate thing, but it is one in harmony.
4) “A Christian reveals true humility by showing the gentleness of Christ, by being always ready to help others, by speaking kind words and performing unselfish acts, which elevate and ennoble the most sacred message that has come to our world.”
-Ellen G. White
When Christian missionaries go out on a mission to spread the word of God to the world, it is very common that they get stepped on by the people of the world. This is because the unsaved see Christians in the scope of how the world sees people, in which is the scope of the psychological warfare. Christians are seeing people through the scope of spiritual warfare, in which when it collides, it is all about which scope people see each other. When the people of the world sees a Christian always ready to help others, by speaking kind words and performing unselfish acts, they see someone who is trying to manipulate for the greater good. But, the way Christians see it to be is that it is what God wants, and therefore it is His command to be so. Christianity is to be naive like a sheep while the world sees life to be all about the dominant ones, for, the naive ones are he ones to be stepped on all the time in the very end.
5) “I did once seriously think of embracing the Christian faith. The gentle figure of Christ, so full of forgiveness that he taught his followers not to retaliate (to do something harmful or bad to someone because they did something harmful or bad to you first) when abused or struck, but to turn the other cheek - I thought it was a beautiful example of the perfect man.”
-Mahatma Gandhi
When we see the way Jesus revealed Himself to the people of the world, at first we may believe that this is what really makes a upper being whether it goes for men or women. But, when we live that life we feel pathetic for doing so. When we get stepped on by the world, other people too will see us to be a weak one and step on us too, out of the perspective of how human beings as a whole are. The way people see us is to be someone to take advantage over and because people take advantage over the ones who do them good all the time, the people of the world will not see any wrongness in what they do, for, the worl d is the way it is for what it is. The beautiful example of the perfect man or woman therefore would be to only please God, and not the people of the world.
