Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Jesus invited us not to a picnic, but to a pilgrimage. He offered us, not an excursion, but an execution. Our Savior said that we would have to be ready to die to self, sin, and the world."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Have you fallen into the world’s trap, following its self-indulgent goals and driven by its self-centered motives? It can happen without you even being aware of it. Make sure Christ is first in your life, and make it your goal to live according to His Word."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Those who have actually experienced daily fellowship with Christ know that it surpasses all worldly activities."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"There are so many professing Christians who are walking hand in hand with the world that you cannot tell the difference between the Christian and the unbeliever. This should never be."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"As Christians, we are not to get our worlds mixed up . . . We are not to mingle with the world, but we are to witness to the world."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"The Christian should stand out like a sparkling diamond against a rough background. He should be more wholesome than anyone else. He should be poised, cultured, courteous, gracious, but firm in the things that he does and does not do. He should laugh and be radiant, but he should refuse to allow the world to pull him down to its level."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Do not expect me to fall in with the evil customs and ways of the world. I am in Rome, but I will not do as Rome does. I am an alien, a stranger, and a foreigner. My citizenship is in heaven."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"It is only the consecrated, Spirit-filled Christian who can have victory over the world, the flesh, and the devil. It is the Holy Spirit who will do the fighting for you."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"When the Christian brings the standards of Jesus Christ to bear upon life in a material and secular world, it is often resented. Because the moral and spiritual demands of Jesus Christ are so high, they often set the Christian “apart."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Worldliness is actually a spirit, an atmosphere, an influence permeating the whole of life and human society, and it needs to be guarded against constantly and strenuously."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"In the world in which we live, we give most attention to satisfying the appetites of the body and practically none to the soul . . . We become fat physically and materially, while spiritually we are lean, weak, and anemic."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Too many people want to have one foot in the world and one foot in the kingdom of God, and it is like straddling a fence. You are not happy either way. Declare yourself for Christ."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Worldliness doesn’t fall like an avalanche upon a person and sweep him or her away. It is the steady drip, drip, drip of the water that wears away the stone. The world is exerting a steady pressure on us every day. Most of us would go down under it, if it weren’t for the Holy Spirit who lives inside us, and holds us up, and keeps us."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"The Bible teaches that we are to live in this world, but we are not to partake of the evils of the world. We are to be separated from the world of evil. When I face something in the world, I ask: “Does it violate any principle of Scripture? Does it take the keen edge off my Christian life? Can I ask God’s blessing on it? Will it be a stumbling block to others? Would I like to be there, or reading that, or be watching that, if Christ should return at that time?"
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"We act as if it doesn’t matter how we live or what we think or say. We have moved in with the world, and we have allowed the world to penetrate the way we live. So the things that we used to call sin no longer seem to be sin to us."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"We live in a hostile world that constantly seeks to pull us away from God."
Billy Graham, Billy Graham in Quotes
"Far too many young people coming of age today have no spiritual or emotional roots. They have been deprived of values by an agnostic and contemporary culture."
