[on the announcement of his son's removal from the ministry]: It is no secret to any of you that my son, Robert, and I have been struggling as we each have different ideas as to the direction and the vision for this ministry. For this lack of shared vision and the jeopardy in which this is placing this entire ministry, it has become necessary for Robert and me to part ways. Show less «

[Who discussed in 2011 about himself contacting the Register to say he did not know about the existence of such a covenant and would have personally never approved it]: I have a reputation worldwide of being tolerant of all people and their views. I'm too well-educated to criticize a certain religion or group of people for what they believe in. It's called freedom. Show less «

[on using one's own form of relaxation to replenish oneself before that big decision is made]: Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come. Show less «

[Who talked about the wavelength of non-Christians in his area]: My first year in Garden Grove I rang 500 doorbells and asked, 'Why don't you go to church?,' The people said, 'Why go to church? One preacher is telling you why Red China should be admitted into the United Nations; the next preacher is telling you why it should not be admitted. And you go to another church where they say you are going to hell. They spend 20 minutes explaining how hopelessly unworthy and lost you are, and then in five minutes they ask you to come to Jesus, who is perfect.' Is that a sensible way to win people? I came to see that it wasn't. Show less «

I was four years and 11 months old. My mother's brother, who was a Princeton graduate, came home from years of working in China, met me, ruffled my hair, and said, 'So you're Robert are you? You are going to be a preacher when you grow up.' I said, 'Oh, thank you, Uncle Henry.' And, I took it as a divine declaration. It wasn't a question. It was a prophetic statement, and I bought it, hook, line and sinker. Show less «
