Al’s Quotes and Quips for May

For the past couple of months I’ve been compiling some quotes I “scribbled” in the pages of my old Bible I used while in Bible College (1969-1974). I hope they have been as much blessing to you as they’ve meant to me through the years.  Here are a some more…

• “Followers must be started. Leaders are self-starters. Leaders of leaders never have to be started.” (Dr. Jack Hyles)
• “A train that makes no noise and rattles no tracks, will never take anyone anyplace.”
• “What a man loves and what a man fears is what makes up a man’s character.” (Dr. Peter S. Ruckman)
• “Missionary vision is a blending of correct information and spirit begotten inspiration that lead to definite interaction.”
• “What the mind dwells on the body will soon act upon.”
• “Impatience is the result of something not going my way.”
• A faithful saying: “In essentials—unity. In non-essentials—liberty. In all things—charity.”
• The common sense rule of Bible interpretation: “When the plain sense of Scripture makes common sense, seek no other sense, lest it be nonsense.”
• “The most dangerous person is one who sees no hope. The most motivated person is the one who is filled with hope.”
• “The Gospel has never been where someone has not taken it.” (Dr. Charles Keen)
• Definition of a Missions Conference: A church business meeting to determine the fate of the heathen.” (Tim Green)

NOTE: I have a few more quotes I wrote in my Bible I will share with you next month.
