QUOTATIONS ARCHIVE

This Quotations Archive contains words from famous and some not so famous people who have expressed a sense of love, compassion, and respect for all of God's creation: for people, for animals, and for the environment.  They speak of our teaching methods and philosophy.  They speak of a lifestyle of non-violence.   They seek to eliminate cruelty and suffering.  They seek to wake us up.   They seek to give us hope.

 "Let no animal die that we may live!"

"Salvation is more than saying a sinner's prayer, and saying that one believes, for 'the demons also believe, and shudder' (James 2:19).  The evidence of salvation is seen in a changed heart and a loving and compassionate soul that seeks to end the suffering of all humans and animals.  Such a person is truly a peacemaking child of God (Matthew 5:9)."

"After years in church ministry, we came to the hard conclusion that most churches are morally bankrupt when it comes to being loving and compassionate peacemakers for the whole of creation, especially when it comes to kindness to the animals outside of our own families. Additionally, we had first hand evidence that cruelty and violence toward animals leads to cruelty and violence toward humans. We wanted to find a way of reaching out to the world around us and shine the light of the Prince of Peace into the dark areas of our society."
~About our Foundation and Internet Ministry (2005)

"The simplest answer to, how does the perfection of a saint come to life in Christians of today, is through strong faith in God and living as a loving, compassionate, peacemaking child of God toward the whole of God's creation (humans, other animals, and the environment). You set the proper example of kingdom living no matter what others do around you."
