“The Devil's methods of opposition are those of alliance and antagonism, and the only serious one is the first. Let us beware of it. Do not let us imagine that we can take into our fellowship and enlist under one banner men who simply affirm truth about Jesus, unless in their own lives there is an absolute loyalty to the Lord Christ. Antagonism is the creation of force for the kingdom of God. Put a man in prison for Christ's sake, and the earthquake will surely follow, and the work will spread.” MenFirstsJesusForceChristLordImagineCreationSeriousDevilAbsolutesMethodPrisonSakeSpreadLoyaltyKingdomsOppositionImagine ThatFellowshipKingdom Of GodAlliancesEarthquakesBannerAntagonism Author:G.

“At root, evangelical anti-intellectualism is both a scandal and a sin. It is a scandal in the sense of being an offense and a stumbling block that needlessly hinders serious people from considering the Christian faith and coming to Christ. It is a sin because it is a refusal, contrary to Jesus' two great commandments, to love the Lord our God with our minds. Anti-intellectualism is quite simply a sin. Evangelicals must address it as such, beyond all excuses, evasions, or rationalizations of false piety.” PeopleMindTwoChristianJesusChristSinLordSeriousRootsExcuseContraryBlockAddressesCommandmentsConsideringOffenseScandalRefusalPietyChristian FaithEvangelicalHinderStumblingIntellectualismEvasionStumbling Blocks Author:Os Guinness
“There are serious mistakes - among them the one saying that Jesus came as a messenger for other people other than the sons of Israel... Christianity is not a faith for people in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas. Other people who are not sons of Israel have nothing to do with that religion... It is a mistake that another religion exists alongside Islam. There is only one religion which is Islam after Mohammed... All those believers who do not follow Islam are losers.” PeopleJesusMistakeChristianitySeriousSonEuropeIslamIsraelBelieverLoserAsiaMessengersSerious Mistakes Author:Muammar al-Gaddafi
“The basic question 'will I obey Christ 's teaching?' is rarely taken as a serious issue. For example, to take one of Jesus' commands, that is relevant to contemporary life, I don't know of any church that actually teaches a church how to bless people who curse them, yet this is a clear command.” PeopleKnowsJesusChristChurchTeachIssuesTakenClearTeachingExampleSeriousContemporaryCommandCurseBlessRelevantSerious IssuesContemporary Life Author:Dallas Willard
