“The man was the finest preacher. He could make a frog stand up straight and get happy with Jesus.”
“...A man can only stumble for so long before he either falls or stands up straight.”
“I've heard that people stand in bad situations because a relationship like that gets turned up by degrees. It is said that a frog will jump out of a pot of boiling water. Place him in a pot and turn it up a little at a time, and he will stay until he is boiled to death. Us frogs understand this.”
“Jesus was certainly not a mere enunciator of permanent truths, like the modern liberal preacher; on the contrary He was conscious of standing at the turning-point of the ages, when what had never been was now to come to be.”
“Jesus was not the man he was as a result of making Jesus Christ his personal savior.”
“I just want to be able to stand up straight for a little while before I get cut down.”
