These Christian quotes are from every era of church history. Of course, due to my interest and experience in the Ante-Nicene churches, Christians, and writers, you'll probably find there are more quotations from that era than any other.
These are not pithy Christian quotes or catchy phrases. These are meant to provide study and reference so you can know what was believed about a particular subject during Christian history and why.
There are a lot of reasons to gather Christian quotes. Some may need something catchy or insightful. Some may need the help of those from history who have made a name for themselves as followers of Christ. Some of Martin Luther's quotes, in fact, are included so you can better understand what he believed, whether you agree with him or not.
Whatever your reason, the Christian quotes below are an ever expanding collection. The more I read, the more quotes you get.
They are divided by subject below. Click on the link for each subject, which will take you to a page of quotes in chronological order.
