“But if there has been on this earth no real, perfect human life, no love that never cooled, no faith that never failed, which may shine as a loadstar across the darkness of our experience, a light to light amidst all convictions of our own meanness and all suspicions of other's littleness, why, we may have a religion, but we have not a Christianity. For if we lose Him as a Brother, we cannot feel Him as a Saviour.” IfsFeelsHumansMayHas BeensRealLightEarthLosesPerfectChristianityDarknessBrotherShiningConvictionHuman LifeSuspicionSaviourNo LoveMeanness Book:Sermons Preached at Brighton Source: Sermons Preached at Brighton
“Let mental culture go on advancing, let the natural sciences progress in even greater extent and depth, and the human mind widen itself as much as it desires: beyond the elevation and moral culture of Christianity, as it shines forth in the Gospels, it will not go.” MindHumansDesireCultureNaturalMoralChristianityGreaterProgressGoes OnBibleShiningDepthHuman MindAdvancingElevationNatural Science Author:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“I do not believe that one can earnestly seek and find the priceless treasure of God's call without a devout prayer life. That is where God speaks. The purpose of prayer and of God's call in your life is not to make you number one in the world's eyes, but to make him number one in your life. We must be willing to be outshone while shining for God. We hear very little about being smaller in our own self-estimate.” WorldLifeBelieveLittlesSelfGodEyeChristianLife IsPurposeSpeakPrayerNumbersChristianitySelf EsteemWillingFindingsShiningSeekingHearingTreasureEvangelismPricelessPrayer LifeHearing God Author:Ravi Zacharias
