Here are a few thoughts I’ve been pondering lately, all from books (or quotes from books) I’ve been reading lately;
- “If you give God the right to yourself, he will make a holy experiment out of you. God’s experiments always succeed.” — Oswald Chambers
- “Duty is only a substitute for love (of God and of other people), like a crutch, which is a substitute for a leg. Most of us need the crutch at times; but of course it’s idiotic to use the crutch when our own legs (our own loves, tastes, habits, etc.) can do the journey on their own.” –C.S. Lewis
- “If by evangelicalism we mean a commitment in every generation to the perennially saving message and person of Jesus himself, then we do not have to depend on a historically conditioned and beguiling epistemology that sprang largely out of the social and political ruins of England in the mid-seventeenth centure after a disastrous war.” — Carl Raschke
