"I take leave to contradict those who say that salvation is an evolution! All that ever can be evolved out of the sinful heart of man is sin-and nothing else! Salvation is the free gift of God, by Jesus Christ, and the work of it is supernatural. It is done by the Lord Himself, and He has power to do it, however weak, no, however dead in sin, the sinner may be!"
"Tolstoy does not necessarily get rid of his angry temperament by undergoing religious conversion, and indeed it is obvious that the illusion of having been reborn may allow one's native vices to flourish more freely than ever, though perhaps in subtler forms."
"God is changing the guard indeed in the body of Christ worldwide. This I cannot be quiet about!"
"Impiety. Your irreverence toward my deity."

As long as you notice, and have to count, the steps, you are not yet dancing but only learning to dance."
"Christianity if false is not important. If Christianity is true however it is of infinite importance. What it cannot be is moderately important."

"For, after all, put it as we may to ourselves, we are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread."
"The histories which we have of the great tragedy give no idea of the general wretchedness, the squalid misery, which entered into every individual life in the region given up to the war. Where the armies camped the destruction was absolute."
