B.B. Warfield
“If miracles are to be common, everyday occurances, normal and not extraordinary, they cease to attract attention, and lose their very reason of existence. What is normal is according to law. If miracles are the law of the Christian life they cease to serve their chief end.
The contention of the faith-healers overlooks numerous important Biblical facts. Primarily the fact that the miraculous gifts in the New Testament were the credentials of the apostles, and were confirmed to those to whom the apostles had conveyed them--whence a presumption arises against their continuance after the apostolic age. ... Paul did not share the views of our modern faith-healers.”
Benjamin Warfield, Counterfeit miracles

Augustine of Hippo
“The human will does not obtain grace by freedom, but obtains freedom by grace,”
Augustine of Hippo

C.S. Lewis
“Envy, bleating 'I'm as good as you', is the hotbed of Fascism.”
C.S. Lewis, Present Concerns

Blaise Pascal
“The Jesuits have tried to combine God and the world, and have only earned the contempt of God and the world.”
Blaise Pascal, Pensées

John   Murray
“It has been charged that this doctrine represents the Son as winning over the incensed Father to clemency and love, a supposition wholly inconsistent with the fact that the love of God is the very fount from which the atonement springs.”
John Murray, Redemption Accomplished and Applied
