Ten Quotes About Some Aspect of Spirituality

There appears to be a great deal of confusion over spirituality and those who are spiritual.

of, relating to, consisting of, or affecting the spirit

There are a great many who are “spiritual“ who differ greatly from others considered “spiritual“: witches, pagans, members of false religions, idol worshipers–true believers of Jesus Christ.

MORE: Being Spiritual or Religious is NOT the Same as Christianity

The following are a varied group: TV preachers, church leaders, evangelists, atheists, artists.

ALL have thoughts on something of a spiritual nature.

Which is not the same as having some thoughts of a Christian nature.

“Even if I accepted that Jesus – like almost every other prophet on record – was born of a virgin, I cannot think that this proves the divinity of his father or the truth of his teachings. The same would be true if I accepted that he had been resurrected.”
—Christopher Hitchens

“I’m an atheist and I thank God for it.”
—George Bernard Shaw

“I need a long and lingering death to make sure that I have time to have a deathbed conversion.”
—John Mellencamp

“I would believe only in a God that knows how to Dance.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche

“Mere heathen morality, and not Jesus Christ, is preached in most of our churches.”
—George Whitefield

“I belong to a gospel choir. They know I am an atheist but they are very tolerant.”
—Brian Eno

“As they come forth, Lord, to sow, release upon them, Father, the power to get, to create, to receive wealth in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
—Joseph Prince

“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Yet his shadow still looms. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives; who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves?—Friedrich Nietzsche

“Millions of people die every day. Everyone’s got to go sometime. I’ve came by this particular tumor honestly. If you smoke, which I did for many years very heavily with occasional interruption, and if you use alcohol, you make yourself a candidate for it in your sixties.”
—Christopher Hitchens

“To be an atheist requires an indefinitely greater measure of faith than to receive all the great truths which atheism would deny.”
—Joseph Addison

DOES the reader consider themselves to be spiritual?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

DOES the reader believe he is saved?

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

The Clever Mr. Churchill

“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled? And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you”
–Mark 13:3-5

Though most will remember Winston Churchill as the prime minister of Great Britain during World War II OR as simply a long-time English politician, the fact remains that Winston Churchill spent most of his adult life writing.

Books, magazine articles, speeches, newspaper columns and articles:Winston Churchill wrote them all.

In fact, it has been said that Winston Churchill wrote more than both William Shakespeare and Charles Dickens combined.

Churchill was a prolific writer, often under the pen name “Winston S. Churchill”, which he used to avoid confusion with the American novelist of the same name. His output included a novel, two biographies, three volumes of memoirs, and several histories. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953 “for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory in defending exalted human values”. Two of his most famous works, published after his first premiership brought his international fame to new heights, were his six-volume memoirThe Second World War and A History of the English-Speaking Peoples; a four-volume history covering the period from Caesar’s invasions of Britain (55 BC) to the beginning of the First World War (1914). A number of volumes of Churchill’s speeches were also published. the first of which, Into Battle, was published in the United States under the title Blood, Sweat and Tears, and was included in Life Magazine‘s list of the 100 outstanding books of 1924–1944.

One area where Winston Churchill does not receive enough credit is in the “clever quote” category. Many of Churchill’s writings contain passages which have a double meaning: one meaning which is taken by others of Churchill’s workers of iniquity; one meaning which was taken a completely different way by the public at large.

Churchill said quite a number of things about the world and the way the world actually works which were very clever because Churchill clearly stated a truth which most ignored as the truth and took what was said as mostly “Just another example of Churchill being Churchill” or “Winston just being clever.”

A few of Churchill’s more accurate observations about the way modern life ACTUALLY works–as opposed to how most people believe life works–follow.

–“Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.”

This is demonstrated time-and-again every time a modern “stumbles over the truth” but then quiets the uneasy feelings he gets when he discovers such a truth by telling himself a lie (“It will be alright.” “That’s just how the world works now.“) to cover up that discovered truth.

–“There is no public opinion. There is only published opinion.”

A fact long known by most who scrutinize the machinations of the media.

–“History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.”

And so he did.

–“If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time – a tremendous whack.”

This is the one rule behind EVERY piece of propaganda ever written. It is demonstrated daily by that large propaganda machine we call the Corporate Media.

–“The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”

–“The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.”

–“A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”

Churchill was so clever because he often revealed the way the world ACTUALLY works, KNOWING very few took him at his word because so many believed Churchill was merely “turning a phrase.”

In other words, Churchill was so clever because so many DISMISSED what he said by thinking Churchill was just trying to be clever.

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

Leonard Ravenhill: Ten Memorable Quotes

Leonard Ravenhill (1907-1994) was a HIGHLY-QUOTABLE evangelist.

Leonard Ravenhill

Leonard Ravenhill was an English Christian evangelist and author who focused on the subjects of prayer and revival. He is best known for challenging western evangelicalism (through his books and sermons) to compare itself to the early Christian Church as chronicled in the Book of Acts….His most notable book is Why Revival Tarries which has sold over a million copies worldwide.

Ten distinctive Leonard Ravenhill quotes:

“Many pastors criticize me for taking the Gospel so seriously. But do they really think that on Judgment Day, Christ will chastise me, saying, ‘Leonard, you took Me too seriously’?”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“When there’s something in the Bible that churches don’t like, they call it ‘legalism.’”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“If Jesus preached the same message minister’s preach today, He would have never been crucified.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“How can you pull down strongholds of Satan if you don’t even have the strength to turn off your TV?”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“The early church was married to poverty, prisons and persecutions. Today, the church is married to prosperity, personality, and popularity.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“Sodom, which had no Bible, no preachers, no tracts, no prayer meetings, no churches, perished. How then will America and England be spared from the wrath of the Almighty, think you? We have millions of Bibles, scores of thousands of churches, endless preachers—and yet what sin!”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a great deterrent.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“It has been well said that there are only three classes of people in the world today: those who are afraid, those who do not know enough to be afraid, and those who know their Bibles.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“The tragedy of this late hour is that we have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

“It is far easier to cool down a fanatic than to warm up a corpse.”
—Leonard Ravenhill

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

This Life is Hell: Ten Quotes

One of the deceptions offered by this world is the one which claims that there is no hell for those judged wicked, evil or foolish by God.

Sometimes, these claims will offer “There is no hell. Hell is this life on earth.”

However, God’s Word is very clear: while this life will present a host of challenges–particularly for the wicked–this present life is nothing like hell, a place of eternal torment and judgment.

With all of this in mind, we offer ten quotes about this life being hell.

“The return from your work must be the satisfaction which that work brings you and the world’s need of that work. With this, life is heaven, or as near heaven as you can get. Without this — with work which you despise, which bores you, and which the world does not need — this life is hell.”
—W.E.B. DuBois

“I know this might not be much comfort when we’re still caught here in “hell” (and this life is hell in the sense we are here to learn some difficult lessons), but our friends and family members who have passed over are all happy where they are!”
—Sylvia Browne

“This is the premise of the Christian Bible. If the Book of Life includes your name, you’ll be in heaven. Otherwise, it’s off to hell. Hell is namelessness and eternal pain is defined as a perpetual suspension between a signifier and a referent. That’s why, as Christopher Marlowe, Mel Brooks and Jacques Derrida all conclude, this life is hell.”
—Susan Leigh Foster

“We are trapped in hell. Earth is actually hell.”
—Justin Roiland

“Hell is no fable, for this life IS hell.”
—Mephistopheles

“Mankind’s enjoyment of God’s ‘rest’ was over…to be banished from God’s presence and to be given over to one’s own sinful desires in this life is ‘hell on earth.”
—Jeff Wisdom

“Repeating what others have written and said my mind is gloomy. Until I open my soul and with my own words can have the glory of expression in endless variety, this life is hell.”
—M. Gopala Krishna Adiga

“Hell isn’t a place. This life is hell.”

“Skeptics who say this are trying to dismiss the reality of hell. They might like to think that life as we know it couldn’t get any worse, but the sufferings in this life will be heaven compared to the suffering in the next life—for those who die in their sins. This life is the closest thing to hell that Christians will ever know, and the closest thing to heaven that sinners will ever know.”
—Heaven and Hell

“Sometimes people look at the evil and suffering and loneliness in the world and say, “This life is hell.” Sometimes it is like hell. But other times it’s like heaven”
—Bryan Wilkerson, Sermon: Why would a good God send people to hell?

“This life is hell enough and nothing can be worse.”
–included in a comment left at a church website

—Arthur C. Clarke

“Science is magic that works.”
—Kurt Vonnegut

“Music is the strongest form of magic.”
—Marilyn Manson

“Magic is not a practice. It is a living, breathing web of energy that, with our permission, can encase our every action.”
—Dorothy Morrison

“The occult sciences were simply ancient technologies for making the occult or unseen manifest in the world – whether that was the influence of the stars and planets, the mysterious meanings of lines inscribed in your palm, or forms of action at a distance like magic and spells.”
—Deborah Harkness

“In the past, people generally believed they could acquire magic in two ways: through learning the craft, either from another practitioner or from books; or through obtaining magic from a powerful being-think Faust or the classic, demonized witch, both of whom get their mojo from Satan.”
—David Liss

“Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.”
—Aleister Crowley

“What a costume designer does is a cross between magic and camouflage. We create the illusion of changing the actors into what they are not. We ask the public to believe that every time they see a performer on the screen, he’s become a different person.”
—Edith Head

“Part of show business is magic. You don’t know how it happens.”
—Sammy Davis Jr.

“Royalty is completely different than celebrity. Royalty has a magic all its own.”
—Philip Treacy

“You wind up creating from silence, like painting a picture on a blank canvas that could bring tears to somebody’s eyes. As songwriters, our blank canvas is silence.

—Rodney Atkins

“Magic lies in challenging what seems impossible.”
—Carol Moseley Braun

“Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.”

“Creativity is an energy. It’s a precious energy, and it’s something to be protected. A lot of people take for granted that they’re a creative person, but I know from experience, feeling it in myself, it is a magic; it is an energy. And it can’t be taken for granted.”
—Ava DuVernay

“Magic has always been an element of Witchcraft, but in the Craft its techniques were practiced within a context of community and connection.”
—Starhawk

“If you look up “charming” in the dictionary, you’ll see that it not only has references to strong attraction, but to spells and magic. Then again, what are liars if not great magicians?”

QUOTES: 15 Quotes About Con Men and Illusion

15 quotes about con men, the games such men play, the false reality inhabited by the victims of such men and the illusion which are created by con men.

“Half the work that is done in this world is to make things appear what they are not.”
—E.R. Beadle

“The reason con artists get away with what they get away with is, their victims are ashamed of their own blindness and their own gullibility, and they tend to just quietly go away.”
—Walter Kirn

“Con men look for human frailty to exploit.”
—Pamela Meyer

“Every decent con man knows that the simplest truth is more powerful than even the most elaborate lie.”
—Ally Carter

“I’m a con artist in that I’m an actor. I make people believe something is real when they know perfectly well it isn’t.”
—John Lithgow

“Sometimes we want to believe something so badly that we allow ourselves to be taken advantage of.”
—Aaron Powell

“In the old days, a con man would be good looking, suave, well dressed, well spoken and presented themselves real well. Those days are gone because it’s not necessary. The people committing these crimes are doing them from hundreds of miles away.”
—Frank Abagnale

“Actors are con men and con men are actors.”
—Edward Burns

“Artists use frauds to make human beings seem more wonderful than they really are. Dancers show us human beings who move much more gracefully than human beings really move. Films and books and plays show us people talking much more entertainingly than people.”
—Kurt Vonnegut

“Ponzi and all of his successors tap into a fundamental part of human nature. One part of our brain tells us this is too good to be true. The other side tells us this is too good to miss. The key to any con is getting a mark to tip to the too-good-to-miss side.”
—Mitchell Zuckoff

“Donald Trump is a world-class con artist. He conned all these people that signed up for Trump University. Now he’s trying to do the same thing to Republican voters. He’s trying to convince them that somehow he’s the guy that is going to stand up to illegal immigration, but he hires illegal immigrants, that he’s fighting for American workers, but he’s hiring foreign workers for his hotels, that he’s going to bring back jobs from China and from Mexico, but, in fact, he’s creating jobs in China and Mexico, because that’s where all of his suits and ties that he sells are made.”
—Marco Rubio

“The real con artist is Senator Marco Rubio who was elected in Florida and who has the worst voting record in the United States Senate. He doesn’t go to vote. He’s absent.”
—Donald Trump

“Hollywood is largely about scammers and con men. It was my main livelihood for about 25 years, and the scams were beautiful and ugly, cheap and expensive, but, wow, were there a lot of scammers.”
—Ben Stein

“But the downside of being con artist is that it is very hard to con. Even if the lies you tell are to yourself.”
—Ally Carter

“The first and worst of all frauds is to cheat one’s self. All sin is easy after that.”
—Pearl Bailey

Witchcraft: 20 Quotes on Witchcraft, About Witches, By Witches

“There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD”
–Deuteronomy 18:10-12

Like the other forbidden practices listed in Deuteronomy 18:10-12, witchcraft involves consulting with a familiar spirit.

Witches and their apologists can chatter on about spells, hexes and other metaphysical, magical mumbo jumbo, but any power a witch has comes from a demon which demands various and sundry sacrifices in exchange for that power.

Ultimately, witchcraft is about rebelling against authority (usually the “patriarchy,” which represents God Almighty).

“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.”
–1Samual 15:23

Which is one reason wherever witches congregate, the original rebel, Lucifer, is not far behind.

Witches are no more immune to deception than any other moderns. Most witches know that all is not as they present it to be.

So while witchcraft is to be condemned, the witch is to be prayed for.

With all that in mind, we present 20 quotes on witchcraft.

[For the most part, these 20 quotes are by witches about witches/witchcraft. While not every quote is by a publicly professed witch, most are. There is simply no way of knowing if all quotes are by witches without the person quoted revealing such information.]

“A Witch is a person who has honestly explored their light and has evolved to celebrate their darkness.”
—Dacha Avelin

“Some witches practice Wicca, which is a narrow subset of witchcraft with more specific gods, goddesses, symbols, and holidays. But many more practice a broader, indefinable brand of witchcraft based on intuition. The edges of this group also bleed into other more mainstream arenas such as yoga and meditation, mindfulness, new-age spirituality, and even sex positivity.”
—Alden Wicker

“Never put your faith in a Prince. When you require a miracle, put your faith in a witch.”
—Catherynne M. Valente

“I have friends who practice witchcraft, and I study tarot myself. I guess, to be specific, I don’t want to believe in a world without magic.”
—Kate Leth

“For all you know, a witch may be living next door to you right now.”
—Roald Dahl

“Spells are just prayers with more steps and a name that scares people.”
–Lily Anderson

“I believe witchcraft is one of the powers in the hierarchy of demons Paul listed in Ephesians 6:12. Just as the Holy Spirit is the power of God, witchcraft is a power of the enemy.”
—Jennifer LeClaire

“A witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest, Granny Weatherwax had once told her, because she should be sure in her soul that the most terrifying thing in the forest was her.”
—Terry Pratchett

“One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar and I didn’t know it. I mean there was a little blood there, and something like that.”
Christine O’Donnell

“On every full moon, rituals … take place on hilltops, beaches, in open fields and in ordinary houses. Writers, teachers, nurses, computer programmers, artists, lawyers, poets, plumbers, and auto mechanics — women and men from many backgrounds come together to celebrate the mysteries of the Triple Goddess of the Dance of Life. The religion they practice is called Witchcraft.”
—Starhawk

“Most people think witches are a coven of lesbians dancing naked in the forest celebrating the semen stolen from imprisoned hypnotized males, which they then use to inseminate one another using turkey basters in order to create a legion of demon babies. Well, that’s only part of it. We are also active in community outreach programs.”
—Amy Sedaris, Paul Dinello and Stephen Colbert

“Witchcraft is, in essence, Goddess Worship.”
—Teresa Moorey

“To deny the possibility, nay, the actual existence of witchcraft and sorcery, is at once flatly to contradict the revealed word of God in various passages both of the Old and New Testament, and the thing itself is a Truth to which every nation in the world hath, in its turn, borne testimony, by either example seemingly well attested or by prohibitory laws, which at least suppose the possibility of a commerce with evil spirits.”
—Sir William Blackstone

“All magic, all witchcraft, depends on the Devil, and is fundamentally evil.”
—Montague Summers

“Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft were written by men.”
—Neil Gaiman

[NOTE: The above quote does not address whether witches work naked or not. It attempts to manipulate the reader by pretending that a prime reason for thinking so is because men–who are slobbering, salacious brutes–have written their lustful desires (instead of the truth) into their description of the pure-as-the-driven-snow witches.]

“Witchcraft is fun. It offers us a chance to play, to act silly, to let the inner child come out. Out of foolishness and play, creativity is born.”
—Starhawk

“Modern witchcraft, a movement that is being propelled out of the forest and into the mainstream. The hook-nosed, broom-riding, pointy-hat-wearing, cackling witches of yore have transfigured into hip, feminist, millennial women with slick websites and soothing advice on manifesting your dreams. Instead of a bubbling cauldron filled with eye of the newt, they’re slinging essential oils seeped with wild herbs.”
—Alden Wicker

“Witchcraft is practiced by a growing number of lapsed Christians seeking easy gratification for life’s most pressing needs: sex, hot clothes, relief from rotten marriages. The Christian Post reported in 2013 that multiple conservative scholars have concluded that there were more than 200,000 people who have declared themselves witches in the United States, and as many as 8 million undeclared practitioners of “the craft.” This makes sorcery the second-fastest-growing religion in the US, after Islam.”
—Selah Ally Tower

“There is a collective force reawakening on the Earth each day: the reawakening of the Witch. Within every woman drawn to the path of witchcraft resides the powerful spirit of the Witch.”
― Dacha Avelin

“Witchcraft is seeing a resurgence among queer-identified young people seeking a powerful identity that celebrates the freedom to choose who you are.”
—Moira Donovan

DOES the reader believe that witchcraft is access to supernatural power with no strings attached?

DOES the reader find–for this and for perhaps other reasons–witchcraft to be attractive?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.
