Harvested from a friend’s Facebook quotes:

“Besides Jesus nothing has any significance. He alone matters.” ~Dietrich Bonhoeffer

“The church is measured by Christ: more Christ, more church; less Christ, less church.” ~T. Austin Sparks

“…you and I will never be Christians, or servants of the Lord, in real spiritual life and effectiveness beyond the measure of our inward apprehension of the Lord Jesus.” ~T. Austin Sparks

“Jesus is either the flesh-and-blood individual who walked and talked, and lived and died, in first-century Palestine, or he is merely a creature of our own imagination, able to be manipulated this way and that.” ~N.T. Wright

“It is not only possible, but actually highly likely, that the church has distorted the real Jesus, and needs to repent of this and rediscover who its Lord actually is.” ~N.T. Wright

“A spiritual life without prayer is like the Gospel without Christ.” ~Henri Nouwen
