“If you are worshipping false gods, such as football, baseball, tennis, or money, or technology, or automobiles, or houses, or gold, or silver - and you can tell what a man worships by what he does on Sunday - repent, and start worshipping the true and living God, the maker of Heaven and Earth and all things that in them are.” -Hartman Rector, Junior

“It is worth noting that the people today who so vehemently wish to sweep religion from all public spaces and institutions are also the same people who consistently oppose freedom. They want only one God - the state, which of course they intend to run.” -Charley Reese: “Jefferson Speaks” (29 November 2002)

“If men and nations did reach up to God with all their hearts war would cease. If love of God were in the heart of man a man would have no desire to destroy his brother. There would be no dishonesty if the love of God were in the heart. If God came first in his life a man would love his neighbor as himself and instead of taking from him he would feel to give.” -Rex C. Reeve, Senior

“Conversation between Adam and Eve must have been difficult at times because they had nobody to talk about.” -Agnes Repplier
“What the world asks now are state reforms and social reforms, - in other words, the reformation of our neighbors. What the Gospel asks, and has always asked, is the reformation of ourselves . . .

It has been found difficult, and not tried.” -Agnes Repplier: in “Consolations of the Conservative” (December 1919)

“I give to my friends the assurance that if they will recast their ideas and attitudes about the relative importance of the spiritual to the material and bring themselves to participate in the mighty cause of establishing Gods kingdom in the earth they will find a satisfaction a sureness of purpose a peace and contentment surpassing anything they have ever known. They will not be ashamed to say to themselves and to their fellows that God and his work come first. When they can develop the faith and the courage to make this acknowledgment self-sufficiency and egotism will be replaced by humility of spirit. The brotherhood of man will become real to them. Their service will be ennobled and they will lay the foundation for the attainment of the highest rewards and blessings vouchsafed to humanity.” -Stephen L. Richards
