“Christianity is the story of how the rightful king has landed, you might say landed in disguise, and is calling us all to take part in a great campaign of sabotage.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“The moment you have a self at all, there is a possibility of putting yourself first – wanting to be the center – wanting to be God, in fact. That was a sin of Satan: and that was the sin he taught the human race.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“That is why the Christian is in a different position from other people who are trying to be good. They hope, by being good, to please God if there is one; or – if they think there is not – at least they hope to deserve approval from good men. But the Christian thinks any good he does comes from the Christ life inside him. He does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because he loves us.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“A live body is not one that never gets hurt, but one that can to some extent repair itself. In the same way, a Christian is not a man who never goes wrong, but a man who is unable to repent and pick himself up and begin over again after each tumble – because the Christ life is inside him.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
