Our trusting the Lord does not mean that there are not times of tears. I think it is a mistake as Christians to act as though trusting the Lord and tears are not compatible.
— Francis Schaeffer (1912–1984)
Creation
The higher the mountains, the more understandable is the glory of Him who made them and who holds them in His hand.
— Francis Schaeffer (1912–1984)
The Word “Christian”
The meaning of the word “Christian” has been reduced to practically nothing. Surely, there is no word that has been so devalued unless it is the word “God” itself.
— Francis Schaeffer
Humanism
Humanism is the defiant denial of the God who is there, with man defiantly set up in the place of God as the measure of all things.
— Francis Schaeffer
Uniqueness of Christianity
The primary emphasis of biblical Christianity is the teaching that the infinite-personal God is the ultimate reality, the Creator of all else, and that an individual can come openly to the holy God upon the basis of the finished work of Christ and that alone.
— Francis Schaeffer
