“On a small scale, person-to-person, Jesus encountered the kinds of suffering common to all of us. And how did he respond? Avoiding philosophical theories and theological lessons, he reached out with healing and compassion. He forgave sin, healed the afflicted, cast out evil, and even overcame death.” KindPersonsSufferingEvilJesusSinCommonHealingCompassionTheoryLessonsPhilosophicalCastsScalesAvoidingHealedTheological Author:Philip Yancey
“Perhaps the greatest contribution that those of us who come from a Christian tradition can make is to throw out the old just-war theory, embrace the nonviolence of Jesus, refuse to kill one another, and truly follow his commandment to "love our enemies.” WarChristianJesusPeaceChristianityEnemyTheoryTraditionEmbraceRefuseContributionNonviolenceCommandmentsJust War Book:The Vision of Peace: Faith and Hope in Northern Ireland Source: The Vision of Peace: Faith and Hope in Northern Ireland
“The theory of three person in one God (that is, a personal Trinity or Tri-unity) suggests polytheism, rather than the one ever-present I AM.

“This is not a matter of subjective theory, but of plain, historical fact. If there had never been a nation of Israel, there would have been no patriarchs, no prophets, no apostles, no Bible and no Saviour. In John 4:22, Jesus Himself summed all this up in one simple statement: "Salvation is from the Jews." Christians from all other racial backgrounds owe to the Jewish people a spiritual debt which can never be calculated.” PeopleIfsHas BeensMatterFactsChristianSpiritualJesusNationsSimpleTheorySalvationHistoricalJewIsraelDebtBackgroundsStatementsProphetSubjectiveApostlesSaviourHistorical Facts Author:Derek Prince
“The gospel of Jesus Christ has the answers to all of our problems. The gospel is not a secret. It is not complicated or hidden. It can unlock the door to true happiness. It is not someone's theory or proposition. It does not come from man at all. It springs from the pure and everlasting waters of the Creator of the universe, who knows truths we cannot even begin to comprehend. And with that knowledge, He has given us the gospel-a divine gift, the ultimate formula for happiness and success.” KnowsMenDoeProblemUniverseJesusGivenChristWaterAnswersSecretDoorsDivineTheoryPureSpringJesus ChristUltimateCreatorComplicatedFormulasPropositionsEverlastingTrue HappinessHappiness And Success Author:Dieter F.
