“Christ, as the ultimate Imago Dei is alluded to in scripture as being without external beauty in the Classical sense, and should better be thought of as one who passed through all the slime and mire of a fallen and sinful creation in order to redeem it. His own body is to be remembered for the marks it bears-even in resurrection-of the scars of his sacrificial death. For the Christian, a theory of beauty might better begin at this point.” ShouldBodyMightChristianOrderChristBeautyCreationTheoryBearsUltimateMarkScriptureRememberedFallenScarResurrectionSlimeExternal Beauty Author:John Walford

“The ultimate test of my understanding of the scriptural teaching is the amount of time I spend in prayer. As theology is ultimately the knowledge of God, the more theology I know, the more it should drive me to seek to know God. Not to know about Him but to know Him! The whole object of salvation is to bring me to knowledge of God. If all my knowledge does not lead me to prayer there is something wrong somewhere.” IfsKnowsShouldDoeWholeUnderstandingPrayerTeachingObjectsAmountTestsUltimateSalvationTheologyKnowing GodLeading MeKnowledge Of God Author:Martyn
“Liberals have a new wish every time their latest wish is granted. Conservatives should make them spell out their principles and ideals. Instead of doing this, conservatives allow liberals to pursue incremental goals without revealing their ultimate destination. So, thanks to the negligence of their opponents, liberals control the terms of every debate by always demanding 'more' while never defining 'enough.' The predictable result is that they always get more, and it's never enough.” ShouldEnoughPoliticsWishGoalTermResultsPrinciplesIdealsUltimateDebatePursueThanksGrantedOpponentsDestinationSpellsRevealingDefiningPredictableNegligence Author:Joseph Sobran
“Economics is a theoretical science and as such abstains from any judgement of value. It is not its task to tell people what ends they should aim at. It is a science of the means to be applied for attainment of ends chosen, not, to be sure, a science of the choosing of ends. Ultimate decisions, the valuations and the choosing of ends, are beyond the scope of any science. Science never tells a man how he should act; it merely shows how a man must act if he wants to attain definite ends.” PeopleIfsMenWantShouldMeanEndsShowsValuesDecisionEconomicsTasksUltimateAimChosenJudgementDefiniteScopeTheoreticalAttainmentValuation Book:Human Action Source: Human Action
