"Enemy occupied territory - that is what this world is. 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. When you go to church you are really listening-in to the secret wireless from our friends: that is why the enemy is so anxious to prevent us from going."

"All sorts of people are fond of repeating the Christian statement that 'God is Love'. But... Of course what these people mean when they say God is love... They really mean 'Love is God'.... but that is something quite different from what Christians mean by the statement 'God is love'. They believe that the living, dynamic activity of love has been going on in God forever and created everything else."

We can become scrupulous or fanatical; we can, in what seems zeal but is really presumption, embrace tasks never intended for us."
