“That's total mech waste. I'm glad I trusted my gut and didn't hand this thing over to the Order. I'm glad I sat with this commonplace for so many units. I'm not sure if I've ever believed in the transmogrification. I'm not too sure if I cared very much about this book at all. But I think if I had handed this book over to the Order, Mr. Smalls and his cronies would have burned this book. Even if I am not sure about the transmogrification of the data I can see now so many units later so much of Pop and Mabel’s cryptz in here. I think it's true what they say about youth thinking they’ve got it all figured out. I'm glad I attempted as hard as I could to stave off rigidity. So many of my fellow etceterists found their little box, climbed inside, had the box taped shut from the outside with the help of peer reinforcement, taped it from the inside too, parceled themselves off, and lost themselves in the realm of the archival sublime.”

“God sovereignly decreed that man should be free to exercise moral choice, and man from the beginning has fulfilled that decree by making his choice between good and evil. When he chooses to do evil, he does not thereby countervail the sovereign will of God but fulfills it, inasmuch as the eternal decree decided not which choice the man should make but that he should be free to make it. If in His absolute freedom God has willed to give man limited freedom, who is there to stay His hand or say, 'What doest thou?' Man’s will is free because God is sovereign. A God less than sovereign could not bestow moral freedom upon His creatures. He would be afraid to do so.”

“Noah found grace amidst a perverse generation (Gen 6: 8) Shem found grace within the family of Noah (Gen 9: 26) Abraham found grace amidst a pagan culture (Gen 12: 1, 15: 7) Isaac found grace within the family of Abraham (Genesis 17: 19) Jacob found grace in the womb (Genesis 25: 23) Israel found grace among the Nations (Deuteronomy 7: 6 to 11) Judah found grace within the family (Genesis 49: 8 to 10) David found grace within the tribe of Judah (2 Samuel 7: 11 to 16) Solomon found grace within the family of David (I Kings 11: 12 & 13) Rehoboam found grace within the family of Solomon (I Kings 12: 17) Mary found grace among the women (Luke 1: 28) The elect found grace among all the guilty sinners (Romans 8: 29, 30) What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on GOD, who has mercy. (Romans 9: 14 to 16) #You did not choose me, I chose you - Soli Deo Gloria!”

“The cross is laid on every Christian. The first Christ-suffering which every man must experience is the call to abandon the attachments of this world. It is that dying of the old man which is the result of his encounter with Christ. As we embark upon discipleship we surrender ourselves to Christ in union with his death—we give over our lives to death. Thus it begins; the cross is not the terrible end to an otherwise god-fearing and happy life, but it meets us at the beginning of our communion with Christ. When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die.”
