“Faith from, its essential nature implies the fallen state of man, while it recognizes the principles of the covenant of grace. It is itself the condition of that covenant. It is a grace which is alike distinguished from the love of angels and the faith of devils. It is peculiar to the returning sinner. None but a lost sinner needs it; none but a humbled sinner relishes it.” MenNeedsStatesLostPrinciplesGraceConditionsEssentialsDevilAngelFallenSinnerPeculiarDistinguishedCovenantRelish Author:Gardiner Spring
“Technologically, modern man does everything he can do-he functions on this single boundary principle. Modern man, seeing himself as autonomous, with no personal-infinite God who has spoken, has no adequate universal to supply an adequate second boundary condition; and man being fallen is not only finite, but sinful. Thus man's pragmatically made choices have no reference point beyond human egotism. It is dog eat dog, man eat man, man eat nature.” MenHumansDoeMadeChoicesCan DoPrinciplesSeeingModernConditionsDogUniversalFunctionInfiniteEnvironmentalBoundariesFallenFiniteAdequateStewardshipEgotismModern ManAutonomous Author:Francis Schaeffer

And conditions in the rural areas are worse off than they have ever been. So, you cannot equate the so-called open-market economy adopted by the SLORC with any real development that benefits people.” PeopleHas BeensRealEconomyConditionsDevelopmentBenefitsStandardsAreasMajorityPopulationFallenAdoptedInflationDroppingMarket EconomyRural AreasHealth And Education Author:Aung San Suu Kyi
