Wherever we see the Word of God purely preached and heard, there a church of God exists, even if it swarms with many faults.
— John Calvin
Need of the Church
The most critical need of the church at this moment is men, bold men, free men. The church must seek, in prayer and much humility, the coming again of men made of the stuff of which prophets and martyrs are made.
— A. W. Tozer
Church Attendance and Membership
Those whom God leads, he leads to his holy hill, and to his tabernacles; those therefore who pretend to be led by the Spirit and yet turn their backs upon instituted ordinances, certainly deceive themselves.
— Matthew Henry
The Church
To be among God’s people is heaven itself.
— Jeremiah Burroughs
A Christian Church
May a merciful God preserve me from a Christian Church in which everyone is a saint! I want to be and remain in the church and little flock of the faint-hearted, the feeble and the ailing, who feel and recognize the wretchedness of their sins, who sigh and cry to God incessantly for comfort and help, who believe in the forgiveness of sins.
— Martin Luther
