Faith never means gullibility. The man who believes everything is as far from God as the man who refuses to believe anything.

I want to be a more serious-minded Christian, more detached from this world, more ready for heaven than I have ever been in my whole life. I want an ear that is sharp to know the voice of the enemy, whether it comes from religion, politics, or philosophy ...

If Jesus Christ isn't the central figure in our lives and in our churches, we're only fooling ourselves.
