Heathen Ways Quotes

“A few watercourses still held the red rays of sunset. They glittered like fire snakes, twining through the dark opaqueness of the landscape, murmuring through funereal waving plumes of blackening grass and rushes. They had witnessed the chasing of witches to their deaths. Here, where all was now still, save for the wailing cry of the peewit, those beings ha shrieked aloud their innocence, or ,borne aloft on the maddened wings of ambitious ecstasy,had proclaimed their power to raise the quick and the dead , to curse if they could not bless, hate if they could not love-clothing themselves with sombre majesty, playing with elemental fires, rather than eat porridge humbly , bow to the squire, and tremble before the priest.”
― Ethel Carnie Holdsworth, Helen of Four Gates

“WHO IS A HEATHEN?
The one who may or may not worship his God, who may know who is God or who his God is, but does not really "Know" HIM, nor does what the Lord his God has commanded nor does he walk in HIS ways. There is a difference between knowing the right thing to do, doing the right thing, and doing things right.”
