The world judges the Christian by his life, not by his belief.

The Bible teaches that faith will manifest itself in three ways. It will manifest itself in doctrine—in what you believe. It will manifest itself in worship—your communion with God . . .It will manifest itself in morality—in the way you live and behave.

When our faith becomes nothing more than a series of rules and regulations, joy flees and our love for Christ grows cold.

People judge us not by what we think or believe, but by what we do—and when our lives don't measure up, we lose their respect and they conclude our faith isn't real.

When confronted with the world's problems, we Christians say automatically: "Christianity is the answer." But this is not true! It is the application of Christianity that is the answer.

Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

Religion without humanity is very poor human stuff.

Charity is the root of all good works.

Love is shown more in deeds than in words.

You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love with which we do them.

Without love, deeds, even the most brilliant, count as nothing.

The truth is that, though we were justified by faith alone, the faith that justifies is never alone (it always produces fruit, 'good works,'...a transformed life).
