Nineteenth century British philosopher John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) is credited with saying, “War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.” (The Biblical Evangelist 38:1, p. 15)
“It is not the Christian doctrine of heaven that is the myth, but the humanist dream of utopia.” -Roy Clements
There is great power in prayer because there is great power in God, and He is the One who answers our prayers. -Craig Brubeck, Studies In Colossians.
So where can we find the kind of certainty that overcomes all... seemingly insurmountable obstacles? This certainty is as old as the Book, runs in a river of divine immutability, and is bestowed on us by the God who never changes or turns His back on His own. -Editorial, Israel My Glory, Jan.-Feb. 2007
