“Don’t listen to the enemy. The devil came to kill, steal and destroy (see John 10:10). All he offers is death. Instead, if you want to live, listen to the life-giving words of the Word of God.”
Ray Comfort, God Speaks: Finding Hope in the Midst of Hopelessness
“Everything good that we have comes from God—the rain, the sunshine, our health, our food, cute kittens, super-cute puppies, smiling babies, pure-white driven snow, deep-blue sea filled with tasty fish, cool water to drink, succulent fruit to eat, and fresh air to breathe: “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (Jas. 1:17). However, instead of having a heartfelt thankfulness to God for all these undeserved blessings, this wicked world ignores God’s will, blasphemes His name, kills unborn children, fornicates, commits adultery, glorifies pornography, mocks the Word of God, promotes homosexuality, despises the gospel, and says that evolution gave us all the blessings of life. But the irony is that when tragedy strikes, they intuitively remember God and ask, “What have I done to deserve this?”

“What motivates us more: the fear of man or the fear of God? If we fear man more than we fear God, then we don’t see God in truth. We see the Lord as less than a man—and this is proven by whose will we obey. A. W. Tozer said, “An idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.”

“justice. Can you imagine how wicked society would be if the fear of God and the fear of civil law were completely removed? Imagine how our culture would be if a man could rape and murder with no concern about being punished in the slightest. A scenario like that would reveal to everyone the true heart of humanity.”
Ray Comfort, God Speaks: Finding Hope in the Midst of Hopelessness
“When the biblical premise of man being evil by nature is forsaken, society begins to believe that a criminal isn’t really responsible for his crimes. People believe instead that societal conditions and life’s circumstances are responsible, so the criminal gets a slap on the hand for violent crime since evil is no longer called evil. The lawbreaker is deemed rather to be sick or insane, and he receives rehabilitative treatment rather than punishment.”

“We tend to look at sin according to the world’s moral standards. We think that lying is wrong because it betrays trust, that stealing is wrong because it destroys society. Homosexual adoption is said to be wrong by many people because children need a mother and a father. If the “morality” of something is based on what works, then it is fine for spouses to lie to each other as long as they find a way to have a relationship that works. Or stealing is morally okay as long as no one notices that he has been ripped off. Or if children raised by homosexuals are proven to be stable and happy, then the lifestyle of homosexuality becomes acceptable. But this perspective is a mistaken one. Rather, sin is wrong for one reason only: God says it’s wrong.”

“atheistic evolution, ask him what it was that came first: the blood, the blood vessels, or the heart. If he says that it was the heart, ask him why a heart would evolve when there was no blood to be pumped anywhere. It would have nothing to beat for. If he says that the blood vessels came first, ask him why they would evolve when there was no blood. If he says that the blood evolved first, ask him how it made its way around when there were no blood vessels in which to travel and no heart to pump it. You could also ask him how and when the lungs came into the equation (if you have the heart to keep pressing him), because blood needs to be oxygenated when it flows around the body, or we will die. The only rational explanation for any of these questions is that the heart, the blood, the blood vessels and the lungs were all created at the same time.”

“Experts tell us that if we are ever in a building that is on fire and filled with smoke, we shouldn’t take even one small breath. The smoke will kill us within minutes. Instead, very quickly, we should drop to our knees and crawl. The air is hot and will cause the smoke to rise, leaving life-giving oxygen close to the ground. That is why in such a fiery environment we should get low, and do it speedily. That’s what Job did in his fiery trial—he bowed low before the Lord—and that is what you and I must do when the heat of tribulation suddenly traps us. It’s in a low position that we will find life-preserving oxygen.”
