Salt seasons, purifies, preserves. But somebody ought to remind us that salt also irritates. Real living Christianity rubs this world the wrong way.
— Vance Havner
Christianity
I like to hear a man dwell much on the same essentials of Christianity. For we have but one God, and one Christ, and one faith to preach; and I will not preach another Gospel to please men with variety, as if our Savior and our Gospel were grown stale.
— Richard Baxter (1615-1691)
Christianity
There never was found in any age of the world, either philosopher or sect, or law or discipline which did so highly exalt the public good as the Christian faith.
— Francis Bacon (1561-1626)
Christianity
There is a common, worldly kind of Christianity in this day, which many have, and think they have enough. It is a cheap Christianity which offends nobody, and requires no sacrifice–which costs nothing, and is worth nothing.
— J. C. Ryle
Understanding Christianity
If you want to understand Christianity, do not shut your Bible – open it, read it!
— D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
