The steady discipline of intimate friendship with Jesus results in men becoming like Him.

A lot of the powerful religious leaders from Jesus to Buddha to Tibetan monks they're really talking about the same things: love and acceptable and the value of friendship and respecting yourself so you can respect others.

I believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior. I believe that Jesus died for my sins and rose again and that's my belief. I still don't know what 'Christian' means. I'm a follower of Christ but I keep making a whole bunch of mistakes. And I thank God for forgiveness.

If Jesus Christ was who He claimed to be and He did die on a cross at a point of time in history then for all history past and all history future it is relevant because that is the very focal point for forgiveness and redemption.

I don't think that fundamentalism has anything to do with Jesus Christ. They call themselves Christians but if that's Christian count me out. Fundamentalism is built on fear and greed. They're telling you to give them your money otherwise you're going to hell.

You know I think Jesus was famous and also in a lot of trouble because he always chose people over sort of established procedures.

The moment someone chooses to trust in Jesus Christ his sins are wiped away and he is adopted into God's family. That individual is set apart as a child of God with a sacred purpose.

The New Right in many cases is doing nothing less than placing a heretical claim on Christian faith that distorts confuses and destroys the opportunity for a biblical understanding of Jesus Christ and of his gospel for millions of people.

It is from the traditional family that we absorb those universal ideals and principles which are the teaching of Jesus the bedrock of our religious faith. We are taught the difference between right and wrong and about the law just punishment and discipline.

Whoever removes the Cross and its interpretation by the New Testament from the center in order to replace it for example with the social commitment of Jesus to the oppressed as a new center no longer stands in continuity with the apostolic faith.
