“If God is compassionate, then certainly those who love God should be compassionate as well.”

“Dumnezeu a proiectat maşinăria umană în aşa fel încât să funcţioneze cu Dumnezeu. El Însuşi este combustibilul pe care spiritele noastre au fost menite să-l consume, sau hrana cu care spiritele noastre au fost menite să se hrănească. Nu există nici un alt combustibil. Tocmai de aceea nu are nici un sens să-I cerem lui Dumnezeu să ne facă fericiţi pe calea noastră proprie, fără să ne batem capul cu religia. Dumnezeu nu ne poate da fericire şi pace fără să ni Se dea pe Sine, deoarece aşa ceva nu se poate. Nu există fericire şi pace fără El .”

“People who have come to know the joy of God do not deny the darkness, but they choose not to live in it. They claim that the light that shines in the darkness can be trusted more than the darkness itself and that a little bit of light can dispel a lot of darkness. They point each other to flashes of light here and there, and remind each other that they reveal the hidden but real presence of God.”

“They ain’t gonna be interested in no church service. I’m for certain-sure those poker-faced heathens don’t even have souls.” He looked Clay up and down. “’Pears to me you an’ yer woman’re folks o’ quality. Folks such as you shouldn’t waller low enough to spend time with the likes o’ them.” Clay had encountered this negative mindset toward natives many times before. Even though it irritated him, his father had taught him to overcome evil with good. “Mr. Burke, have you considered how much Jesus lowered Himself to leave Heaven and spend time with us on earth? Should we do any less than He did?”
