Quotes

“More people are kept from faith by the idea that the Bible was written by an ignorant lot yet to benefit from the advances of science. The accusation that the Bible represents backward thinking is, in reality, an example of backward thinking. The God-inspired writers of the Bible have always been well ahead of the scientists– a scenario that hasn’t changed from the days of Moses to the days of darwin, or even now in the 21st century.” – Mike Adams, writer for Lutherans for Life.

“Stewardship is not just about money. It’s more about giving part of your spirit to everyone you pass on the road of life. It soon becomes something you look forward to every day at each time you serve someone else; your heart begins to burn inside you and you feel like bursting out with…with something.” – member of Trinity.

“It is light that enables us to see the difference between things; and it is Christ that gives us light.” – A.W. Hare and J.C. Hare

“God uses men who are weak and feeble enough to lean on him.”
– Hudson Taylor, missionary to China
