“Read a work on the "Evidences of Christianity," and it may become highly probable that Christianity, etc., are true. This is an opinion. Feel God. Do His will, till the Absolute Imperative within you speaks as with a living voice, "Thou shalt, and thou shalt not;" and then you do not think, you know that there is a God.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsMaySpeakVoiceChristianityOpinionEvidenceAbsolutesEtcWithin YouImperatives Book:Sermons Preached at Brighton Source: Sermons Preached at Brighton
“There is a reason Christianity is violently opposed in our world while other religions and philosophies are tolerated... Biblical Christianity evokes violent responses from some people, because only in Christianity is there an absolute right and wrong. People hate the Bible and Christianity because of the law of God.” PeopleWorldReasonPhilosophyChristianLawHateReligiousChristianityAbsolutesResponseViolentOur WorldBiblicalEvoke Book:Raising the Standard/Reclaiming Your World for God Source: Raising the Standard/Reclaiming Your World for God
“If the essence of cynicism consists in preferring nature to art, virtue to beauty and science; in not bothering about the letter of things -- to which the Stoic strictly adheres -- but in looking up to the spirit of things; in absolute contempt of all economic values and political splendor, and in courageous defence of the rights of independent freedom; then Christianity would be nothing but universal cynicism.” IfsArtWould BePoliticalSpiritValuesChristianityVirtueRightsEconomicLettersEssenceUniversalAbsolutesIndependentBotherCourageousContemptCynicismDefenceSplendorStoicEconomic Value Author:Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
“Near beliefs are to blame for a new brand of Christianity that is epidemic in our homes and churches-a faith that has little flavor, little light and little influence.

“How my eyes see, perspective, is my key to enter into His gates. I can only do so with thanksgiving. If my inner eye has God seeping up through all things, then can't I give thanks for anything? And if I can give thanks for the good things, the hard things, the absolute everything, I can enter the gates to glory. Living in His presence is fullness of joy- and seeing shows the way in.” IfsWayGivingI CanHardShowsEyeJoyChristianitySeeingPerspectiveKeysGloryAll ThingsAbsolutesGood ThingsThanksGatesFullnessHard Things Author:Ann Voskamp
“At the center of the Christian faith is the affirmation that there is a God in the universe who is the ground and essence of all reality. A Being of infinite love and boundless power, God is the creator, sustainer, and conserver of values....In contrast to the ethical relativism of [totalitarianism], Christianity sets forth a system of absolute moral values and affirms that God has placed within the very structure of this universe certain moral principles that are fixed and immutable.” ChristianCertainValuesUniverseMoralChristianityPrinciplesAbsolutesStructureFixedEthicalContrastRelativismMoral ValuesMoral Principles Author:Martin Luther
“Christianity could not content itself with building up its own altar; it was absolutely forced to undertake the destruction of the heathen altars.
