“So we should be careful to avoid “dumbing down” biblical truths into categories of human comprehension or forcing biblical truths into philosophical categories and ideas”
Daryl Aaron, The 40 Most Influential Christians . . . Who Shaped What We Believe Today

A.W. Tozer
“Since believing is looking it can be done any time. No season is superior to another season for this sweetest of all acts. God never made salvation depend upon new moons nor holy days or sabbaths. A man is not nearer to Christ on Easter Sunday than he is, say, on Saturday, August 3, or Monday, October 4. As long as Christ sits on the mediatorial throne every day is a good day and all days are days of salvation.”
A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God and Other Classics

N.T. Wright
“but his agenda of dealing with sin and its effects and consequences was never about rescuing individual souls from the world but about saving humans so that they could become part of his project of saving the world.”
N.T. Wright, Surprised by Scripture: Engaging Contemporary Issues

A.W. Tozer
“To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul’s paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.”
A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God and Other Classics

N.T. Wright
“As Pope Benedict XVI said in his address to the United Nations in April 2008, the language of rights is borrowed from the great Christian tradition, but if you cut off those Christian roots, you get all kinds of abuses, each claiming the postmodern high ground of victimhood but only succeeding in debasing the coinage of rights itself.”
N.T. Wright, Surprised by Scripture: Engaging Contemporary Issues
