Actually, faith is most reasonable. What is more reasonable than that a creature should trust his Creator? Is it insane to believe in One Who can neither lie nor fail nor err? To trust God is the most sensible, sane, rational thing that a man can do. It is no leap in the dark. Faith demands the surest evidence and finds it in God’s unfailing Word. No one has ever trusted Him in vain; no one ever will. Faith in the Lord involves no risk whatever.

“What do you want with me?” I want you, not to be a convert to my opinions, but to be a member of Christ, a child of God, and an heir of his kingdom.
– John Wesley –
We have a strange illusion that mere time cancels sin.

from The Problem of Pain
A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God’s truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.
– John Calvin –
Anything short of Jesus is short of the Gospel – for Jesus is the Gospel.

It is easier to find a score of men wise enough to discover the truth than to find one intrepid enough…to stand up for it.
– AA Hodge –
Truth without love is brutality, and love without truth is hypocrisy.
– Warren Wiersbe –
When we say that there’s only one way of salvation, people say, “You’re very narrow minded.” But the truth is always narrow minded. 2 + 2 = 4. it’s not 3.9, it’s not 4.1.
– Zac Poonen –
I pray that the Lord might crown this year with His goodness and in the coming one give you a hallowed dare-devil spirit in lifting the biting sword of Truth consuming you with a passion…known to God as that saintly madness that led His Son through bloody sweat and hot tears to agony on a rude Cross–and Glory!
