C. I. SCOFIELD:

    The church has failed to follow her appointed pathway of separation, holiness, heavenliness and testimony to an absent but coming Christ; she has turned aside from that purpose to the work of civilizing the world, building magnificent temples, and acquiring earthly power and wealth, and, in this way, has ceased to follow in the footsteps of Him who had not where to lay His head.

C. S. LEWIS:

    I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.

C. S. LEWIS:

    If you examined a hundred people who had lost their faith in Christianity, I wonder how many of them would turn out to have reasoned out of it by honest argument? Do not most people simply drift away?

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN:

    The moral and religious system which Jesus Christ transmitted to us is the best the world has ever seen, or can see.

AGGIE PATE:

    I didn't know Onward Christian Soldiers was a Christian song. At a non-denominational mayor's breakfast, Fort Worth, Texas

AMBROSE BIERCE:

    Christian: One who thinks the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor.

DAN QUAYLE:

    ... I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe.

DIETRICH BONHOEFFER:

    Politics are not the task of a Christian.

JOHN WESLEY:

    Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.

KATHLEEN NORRIS:

    Perfection, in a Christian sense, means becoming mature enough to give ourselves to others.

LEO TOLSTOY:

    Christianity, with its doctrine of humility, of forgiveness, of love, is incompatible with the State, with its haughtiness, its violence, its punishment, its wars.

MINNA CANTH:

    Christianity has been buried inside the walls of churches and secured with the shackles of dogmatism. Let it be liberated to come into the midst of us and teach us freedom, equality and love.

OTTO VON BISMARCK:

    No civilization other than that which is Christian, is worth seeking or possessing.

SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE:

    Christianity is not a theory or speculation, but a life; not a philosophy of life, but a life and a living process.
