The Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ.
Religion is not an end in itself. One's union with God is the ultimate goal. There are so many religions because immature people tend to emphasize trivial differences instead of important likenesses. Differences between faiths lie in creeds and rituals rather than in religious principles.
Living for God's glory is the greatest achievement we can accomplish with our lives.
Our No. 1 goal on this Earth is to make disciples. That's the only job we want to do.
To be known by God is the highest goal of human existence.
Let me just tell you this, my aim in life is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, that's all I care about.
We’re on a mission from God.
Man was created to praise, reverence, and serve God our Lord and in this way to save his soul. The other things on Earth were created for man's use, to help him reach the end for which he was created.
My best goal was to meet Jesus.
The whole purpose of life is to gain enlightenment. Nothing else is significant compared to that completely natural, exalted state of consciousness. So always strive for that. Set your life around that goal. Don't get caught up in small things, and then it will be yours.
The final goal of all religions is to realise the essential oneness.
My prayer today is that God would make me an extraordinary Christian.
If you look from my point of view, that's what Christians strive for - love from God.
The essence of religion, in my view, is the thirst for an end higher than natural ends.
Self-inquiry is the process and the goal also. 'I am' is the goal and the final reality. To hold to it with effort is self-inquiry. When spontaneous and natural it is realization.
For victory in life, we've got to keep focused on the goal, and the goal is Heaven.
The Glory of God, and, as our only means of glorifying Him, the salvation of human souls, is the real business of life.
Whither should we aim if not towards God?
I just continue to do my work with dedication. Really, it's my listeners who have given me 40 years of bhushana. However, my ultimate probably would be to sing in front of god. That will be something.
Let us go forward in peace, our eyes upon heaven, the only one goal of our labors.
It is hoped that by God's assistance, some of the continents in the Ocean will be discovered ... for the Glory of God.
In this culture, God is not the highest entity; mukti or liberation is the highest goal. We are willing to use God as a stepping stone, if needed.
There's high, and there's high, and to get really high - I mean so high that you can walk on the water, that high-that's where I'm going.
I believe that the purpose of life is to glorify God.
Is the God of the Mahometan different from the God of the Hindu? Religions are different roads converging to the same point. What does it matter that we take different roads so long as we reach the same goal? Wherein is the cause for quarreling?
