“It’s designed to do what it does do and what it does do it does do well doesn’t it, don’t you think? I think it does, do you, I do, hope you do too, do you?” - Ham

The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge but to change our lives. - D.L. Moody

Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of. --Charles Spurgeon

If you want to do good in these times, you must throw aside indecision, and take up a distinct, sharply–cut, doctrinal religion. If you believe little, those to whom you try to do good will believe nothing. The victories of Christianity, wherever they have been won, have been won by distinct doctrinal theology; by telling men roundly of Christ's vicarious death and sacrifice; by showing them Christ's substitution on the cross, and His precious blood; by teaching them justification by faith, and bidding them believe on a crucified Savior; by preaching ruin by sin, redemption by Christ, regeneration by the Spirit; by lifting up the brazen serpent; by telling them to look and live—to believe, repent, and be converted. This—this is the only teaching which for centuries God had honored with success, and is honoring at the present day both at home and abroad. - J.C. Ryle

Because marriage comes from God above and not from man or beast below, it involves moral, not merely physical, problems. A sin against the commandment of purity is a sin against God, not merely the outraging of convention, the thoughtlessness of youth, the evidence of bad taste. - Walter Maier

We think of television, which laughs at fidelity and makes light of even the most perverted lifestyles. If I were asked to pick the single most destructive feature of secular American life, I would without hesitation name television. It destroys the home, beginning with the proper and necessary communication among the members of it. In place of normal, relating individuals, it forms people who only think of themselves- of achieving "me-first," pleasure-oriented, materialistic and immediate gratification lifestylke. - Jmaes Montgomery Boice

Marriages which are dependent on [romantic] love fall apart, or at best are in for a stormy time of it. But marriages which consistently look back to their vows, to those wild promises made before God, and which trust Him to make sense out of them, find a continual source of strength and renewal. - Mike Mason
