In matters of politics proverb

 A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness.

 In matters of politics and government, the church maintains a policy of remaining neutral institutionally. Latter-day Saints are taught to support their local and national governments, but the church does not endorse candidates, parties or platforms.

 If that's going to be the policy of the church as the church seeks to be its best self, then I'm going to accept what the church tells me, ... On the other hand, I would have an awful lot of compassion for men who are holy, celibate, chaste and who are homosexual and have served the church well.

 I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.
  Thomas Paine

 We believe that the local church is the hope of the world, and we do this summit because encouraging and building up and challenging church leaders is one of the best ways we can help the local church be all it was meant to be.

 Church isn’t where you meet. Church isn’t a building. Church is what you do. Church is who you are. Church is the human outworking of the person of Jesus Christ. Let’s not go to Church, let’s be the Church.

 The Episcopal Church is the Anglican church, or church of England, in America. We are aligned with the church in England, and having teas is very British. Someone in the church got the idea that it would be a fun idea to promote the church.

 I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute - where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act. I do not speak for my church on public matters - and the church does not speak for me.
  John F. Kennedy

 Though the Congress is only in minority in the UPA coalition and is dependent on other parties for support, it has not taken the other parties into confidence on the matters related to its nuclear policy, whether it be its deal with the US or its position on Iran's nuclear policy.

 Organizations that have been granted tax-exempt status ought not endorse specific candidates for public office. What we have in Odessa, what some people actually seem to be proud of, is an ongoing problem with separating the prerogatives of church and state.

 Mission presidents are called by an inspired president of the church, after a review of the individual's church experience, his and his wife's family circumstances, their health, availability, knowledge of the church's doctrine and government, proven leadership experience and other factors.

 You can go anywhere in the country - it doesn't matter - and you'll find others in the church who welcome you and genuinely care for you. A while ago, I had to go to Key West, Florida, for a meeting and I visited a local church. Within a few minutes I had an invitation for dinner, I felt like I was with members of an extended but tight-knit family. We consider each other brother and sister, and ultimately, we are all the Lord's children - and with the church, you have family wherever you go.

 As a Fundamentalist I had discovered while I was in college that it is possible to dismiss the entire Church as having gone off the rails by about AD 95. That is, we, with our open Bibles, knew better than did old Ignatius or Clement, who had been taught by the very apostles themselves, just what the Church is and what it should look like.

 Jay Griffin taught a chess class and he decided to form the club. We met at Mother of Sorrows church for several years before moving to the First Presbyterian Church on Laird Road.

 The Fire Department called the Red Cross, and they put us up in a hotel for a few nights, and we called our bishop at our church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on McCollum Road in Bentonville), and the people from there have been helping us.

 I remember that campaign. I was 14 years old, and I lived in Houston, Texas, and my pastor came back to our Baptist church and from the pulpit, he said: 'I have good news! President Kennedy told us that on public-policy issues, his church doesn't speak for him and he doesn't speak for his church. And that he's going to separate his Catholicism from his service if he's elected.' And people applauded all across the auditorium. They just thought it was a great thing.
