INFIDELITY
Prove a point to an infidel, and he wants it proved again; let it be as clear as
noon-day to him from the testimony of many witnesses, yet doth he not believe it. In
fact, he doth believe it; but he pretendeth not to do so, and is an infidel in spite of
himself. WWa136
There are infidels on earth, but there are none in heaven, and there can be none in
hell. 349.12
Judas betrayed his Master with a kiss. This is how most apostates do it; it is always
with a kiss. Did you ever read an infidel book in your life which did not begin with
profound respect for truth? I never have. 494.94
Brethren, worse difficulties have occurred to us than any that have ever been
penned by the most notorious infidels. 1914.435
We are case-hardened. The Creole proverbs says, “When the mosquito tried to sting
the alligator, he wasted his time”; and the case is much the same when infidels deal
with us. 2069.81
I will not say that every man who rejects Christ is necessarily immoral; but I will say
that, in nine cases out of ten, it is so; and that, when you trace an infidel’s life, there
is something there that accounts for his infidelity. He wants a coverlet in his unbelief
for something that he has good need to cover. 2622.238
Infidelity will do very well for you when you can have a heated dance and merry
revelry, but sickness and death are tests which it cannot endure. Many have found,
then, that the ashes upon which they were feeding were but the preparation for
feeding upon the burning coals of the eternal wrath of God. 2686.365
