“Christians should be a foreign influence, a minority group in a pagan world.”

“In Christ alone there is deliverance from man’s tortured thoughts and freedom from the sordid habits which are destroying so many people. Why does the Bible so clearly denounce drunkenness? Because it is an enemy of human life. Anything that is against a person’s welfare, God is against.”

“Suffering in life can uncover untold depths of character and unknown strength for service. People who go through life

Only deeply plowed earth can yield bountiful harvests.”
