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
Christianity
This, and this alone, is Christianity: a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world — but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.
— William Law
