To fit into the patterns of evangelism, artists have often compromised, and so prostituted their art. But Handel with his Messiah, Bach with his St. Matthew's Passion, Rembrant with his Denial of St. Peter, and the archetects of those Cistercian churches were not evangelizing nor making tools for evangelism; they worked to the Glory of God. They did not compromise their art. They were not devising tools for religious propoganda or holy advertisement. Precicely because of that their works were deep and important. - H.R. Roomaaker

The only thing necessery for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. - Edmund Burke

You can shut Him up as a fool, spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him God. But let us not come up with any patronizing nonsence about His being a great human teacher. He hasn't left that open to us. He did not intend to. - C.S. Lewis

Preach as never sure to preach again. As dying man to dying men. - Richard Baxter

We come to love, not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

If we meet, and you forget me, you've lost nothing. If you meet Jesus Christ, and forget Him, you have lost everything.
