Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, / The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, / To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” The Bible

“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, / (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) / Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; / And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: / By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: / Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: / To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.” The Bible

“Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.”
St. Francis of Assisi quotes (Founder of the Franciscan order, 1181-1226)

“If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.”
Saint Augustine quotes (Ancient Roman Christian Theologian and Bishop of Hippo from 396 to 430.)

“God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars.” Martin Luther (German Priest and Scholar whose questioning of certain church practices led to the Protestant Reformation. 1483-1546)

Law Must Be Fulfilled — Gospel Shows How "Now when a man has learned through the commandments to recognize his helplessness and is distressed about how he might satisfy the law—since the law must be fulfilled so that not a jot or tittle shall be lost, otherwise man will be condemned without hope — then, being truly humbled and reduced to nothing in his own eyes, he finds in himself nothing whereby he may be justified and saved. Here the second part of Scripture comes to our aid, namely, the promises of God which declare the glory of God, saying . . . 'If you believe, you shall have all things; if you do not believe, you shall lack all things . . .' God our Father has made all things depend on faith so that whoever has faith will have everything, and whoever does not have faith will have nothing . . ." —Martin Luther

“The gospel to me is simply irresistible.”
Blaise Pascal quotes (French Mathematician, Philosopher and Physicist, 1623-1662)

“It can not be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians, not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ!”
Patrick Henry quotes (American Lawyer, patriot, and orator, symbol of the American struggle for liberty, 1736-1799)

“If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.” Martin Luther

“All the world would be Christian if they were taught the pure Gospel of Christ!” Thomas Jefferson

“I don't preach a social gospel; I preach the Gospel, period. The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is concerned for the whole person. When people were hungry, Jesus didn't say, "Now is that political or social?" He said, "I feed you." Because the good news to a hungry person is bread.”
Bishop Desmond Tutu (African Spiritual leader and Novelist)

“But what is the use of preaching the Gospel to men whose whole attention is concentrated upon a mad, desperate struggle to keep themselves alive?”
William Booth (English Spiritual leader, founder and general of the Salvation Army. 1829-1916)
