"Accepting Christ' is only the beginning, not the ultimate goal. Likewise, evangelism is vital, but so is discipleship. To go no deeper is to risk being like the seed that fell not on good soil but on rocky ground, sprouting up but bearing little or no fruit. Focusing solely on God's gift of free salvation is focusing on the minimum."

"But doesn't that make sense? That the infinite would be, indeed... Infinite? That even the most holy amongst us would only be able to see scattered pictures of the eternal picture at any given time?

"Do but stand still in the hour of trial, and you will see the help of God, if you trust in Him. But there is so often a forsaking the ways of the Lord in the hour of trial, and thus the food of faith, the means whereby our faith may be increased, is lost."
George Muller
"If there is heaven then there must be hell too, don't think that The God is merciful, he didn't create hell for himself."

"(I should mention I attended a Christian elementary school where “my dad’s hermeneutic can beat up your dad’s hermeneutic” served as legit schoolyard banter.)."

"How catastrophic is it when the church herself becomes secularized and expressive individualism sits in the driver’s seat in the church’s life and mission. When the church has lost connection with Christ her living head, she loses her soul."
Harold L. Senkbeil
"He's the King of all the heavens and all found here below.To Him, your hearts are like this lake reflecting in His glow."
Alexis York Lumbard
"If I were going to convert to any religion I would probably choose Catholicism because it at least has female saints and the Virgin Mary."
Margaret Atwood
"In my view, the gospels are true, not historically, but theologically, or, as I would argue, prophetically! What we have is, the Messiah’s history written in advance in story form."
