“I always had a struggle, which I still do, when you're playing a character and it's not necessarily your morals or your values.

“Our work is not to save souls, but to disciple them. Salvation and sanctification are the work of God's sovereign grace, and our work as His disciples is to disciple others' lives until they are totally yielded to God. One life totally devoted to God is of more value to Him than one hundred lives which have been simply awakened by His Spirit. As workers for God, we must reproduce our own kind spiritually, and those lives will be God's testimony to us as His workers. God brings us up to a standard of life through His grace, and we are responsible for reproducing that same standard in others.” KindHas BeensSoulSpiritValuesGraceStandardsHundredResponsibleSalvationWorkersDevotedDiscipleSovereignTestimonyAwakenedSanctificationReproducing Author:Oswald Chambers

“What frightens me about America today is that in the large majority there is no active sense of the value of the individual: few citizens feel that they are the Republic, responsible for what happens. And when the individual in a democracy ceases to feel his importance, then there is grave danger that he will give over his freedom, if not to a Fascist State, then to the advertising men or Publicity Agents or to the newspaper he happens to read.” IfsMenGivingFeelsStatesHappensTodayAmericaValuesIndividualUnited StatesDemocracyDangerCitizensImportanceResponsibleMajorityActiveNewspapersGravesCeaseAdvertisingAgentsRepublicPublicityFascistsAmerica Today Author:May Sarton
