BARNES, Albert Quotes
(1798-1870), American clergy
It does not require great learning to be a Christian and be convinced of the truth of the Bible. It requires only an honest heart and a willingness to obey God.
Life, if properly viewed in any aspect, is great, but mainly great when viewed in its relation to the world to come.
Who has ever told the evils and the curses and the crimes of war? Who can describe the horrors of the carnage of battle? Who can portray the fiendish passions which reign there! If there is anything in which earth, more than any other, resembles hell, it is its wars.
