“Mere excess in food is much less valuable than delicacy. Its chief use is as a kind of artillery preparation for attacks on chastity.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

“Who confronts them with urgency and tears? Who pleads with them not to waste their lives? Who takes them by the collar”
― John Piper, Don't Waste Your Life

“Mere cowardice is shameful; cowardice boasted of with humorous exaggerations and grotesque gestures can be passed off as funny. Cruelty is shameful—unless the cruel man can represent it as a practical joke. A thousand bawdy”
― C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

“The only reason we’re redeemed is not because of our value but because of the value of Christ. God is gracious to us in order to reward One who does deserve a reward—His only begotten Son. This involves a strange intersection of grace and justice. It is just that Christ should receive an inheritance, and we are that inheritance. That we are the inheritance is grace for us and justice for Christ.”
― R.C. Sproul, What Is Predestination?
