Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an automobile. Jul 02, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Of course we're Christian. The very name of the church declares that. The more people see us and come to know us, the more I believe they will come to realize that we are trying to exemplify in our lives and in our living the great ideals which (Jesus Christ) taught. Jul 02, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
God's extraordinary work is most often done by ordinary people in the seeming obscurity of a home and family. Jul 02, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Anyone who is steady in his determination for the advanced stage of spiritual realization and can equally tolerate the onslaughts of distress and happiness is certainly a person eligible for liberation. Jul 02, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Do not waste time bothering whether you ‘love’ your neighbor; act as if you did. As soon as we do this we find one of the great secrets. When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you will presently come to love him. Jun 20, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
These people fail to realize that it is on the inside that God must be defended, not on the outside. They should direct their anger at themselves. For evil in the open is but evil from within that has been let out. The main battlefield for good is not the open ground of the public arena but the small clearing of each heart.

The great secret of true success, of true happiness, is this: the man or woman who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish person, is the most successful. Jun 20, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
And out of that hopeless attempt has come nearly all that we call human history—money, poverty, ambition, war, prostitution, classes, empires, slavery—the long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy. Jun 18, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
My concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right. Jun 18, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
