"I can remember one time a guy told me, a guy that preached, he claimed to be a preacher, he claimed to be called of God—I asked him about his prayer life one day. He said, 'Yeah, I pray; I pray when I'm brushing my teeth.' I knew immediately that man was not called of God to stand in a pulpit. Every church he's tried to plant has been a failure. He is not a God-called man." ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "Who Ascends the Hill of God," 00:11:53.
"Why do you do what you do? Why do you dress the way you dress?…Why do you do what you do with your time? Why do you watch what you watch on TV or at the movies or on the computer? … Do you have God-glorifying reasons for all of it?" ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "The Battle With Sin: Passion for the World."
"The way He talked, the way He walked, led men to kill Him. … If you look like Christ and talk like Christ and act like Christ, they'll crucify you too. ~ Tim Conway" ~ Tim Conway
"If following Christ has never cost you anything, you're not following Him." ~ Tim Conway
"If that person shows by a continuous, ongoing lifestyle that they're in love with the world, they do not love God; they are those adulteresses and adulterers that James is dealing with [James 4:4], and they're at enmity with God! Lay it down, hands down, folks." ~ Tim Conway
"People who come along all the time and they ask, 'What's wrong with this?' In other words, they're always wondering how close to the edge they can get…and still be a Christian. Listen, if any of you are like that, just go back to the world. Stop testing the edges. If it's the world you want, go back to it! And if you want to love Christ, then love Christ, and love Him with all your heart, and follow Him, and stop playing this idiotic game where you want to see how close to the edge you can live." ~ Tim Conway
"The majority of what calls itself Christianity today is a circus. You've got a bunch of people chasing health, wealth, prosperity; chasing a good time, chasing the social club, chasing where the action's happening, chasing the good music and the good times. But few people are out there chasing God, and truly going hard after Him, and truly making the sacrifices in their life and cleaning their hands in such a way and working to have a pure heart that they might actually ascend that hill of the Lord and they might actually commune with God in a way that few people do and few people know about." ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "Who Ascends the Hill of God," 00:09:00.
"There's a mindset in other countries that if you're an American, you're a Christian. Well, those people are sadly misled; they don't know our country. Our country is wicked, and the Christians are few. Just like they're few in other countries, they're few here. There may be many churches and there may be church buildings on every street corner and every corner in our cities across this country, but the true Christians are few." ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "Submission to the Government."
"The whole world is willing to say a little prayer. What does the sinner's prayer sound like? … 'Jesus, please come into my heart.' You know one of the dangerous things about that prayer? You don't find it anywhere in the word of God. Nowhere! That's not how Jesus said Heaven is attained. … We've got a world full of people that are happy and ready to say 'Jesus, I'm a sinner, please come into my heart,' and then you go enjoy all the idols, all the sin, love the same garbage on TV that the rest of the world loves, dress like them, look like them, pursue all the things that the world wants—everybody wants to be able to say a little prayer as fire insurance to get out of Hell and then go live it up and have their sin!" ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "Few People Make it to Heaven."
"You've got a little bit of religion, but you, aside from that little religion, are just like the world. You're just like the multitudes, you're just like the crowd. Because the truth is, you play the same video games that the world plays, and you go to the same movies that the world goes to, you laugh at the same things the world laughs at, watch the same tv shows that the world watches. You love the fashions of the world, the idols of the world, the rock stars, the movie stars, the sports stars, they're your idols as well. … You may have some conservative parents that don't let you stay up as late…but you know in your heart you desire those same things, you want them. The truth is, you're just like the crowd. Folks, the crowd is on the way to destruction." ~ Tim Conway, sermon, "Few People Make it to Heaven."
