“I don't want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.”

“The Bible is to be our basis of authority. We must “by faith” accept [Jesus] as the Son of the living God. This sounds narrow and intolerant, and in a sense it is!”

“He who is called to and set apart for the work of an evangelist is to devote his time and effort single-mindedly to this God-given task.

Only the clear leading of God will cause him to change his ministry.”

can move more people in the direction of God than thousands of insipid professors of religion.”
