Quotes

"I would not give a fig for the simplicity this side of complexity, but I would give my life for the simplicity on the other side of complexity." - Oliver Wendell Holmes
"Part of genuine repentence is having the desire to remain with the one offended" - John MacArthur
"Preparing a sermon is like cooking a meal. You need pots and pans and utensils, but you don't bring them out to the table where people are eating." - Derek Thomas
"Talking to your friends about Jesus because you want them to know Jesus is good; but have you ever considered talking to them about Jesus because you felt that Jesus deserves their praise?" - unknown
"The problem is not simply pain, that we feel pain, or that some pain is too much - but that we find so little meaning in some pain. Anguish is is the concomitant of meaningless pain. It divides the pain of childbirth from the pain of cancer" - Thomas Naylor ==> Christian, do you have an answer for him?
The only way in which a state-controlled school can be kept even relatively healthy is through the absolutely free possibility of competition by private schools and church schools; if it once becomes monopolistic, it is the most effective engine of tyranny and intellectual stagnation that has yet been devised. (J. Gresham Machen: Selected Shorter Writings, 167)
