Grief is like a long valley, a winding valley where any bend may reveal a totally new landscape.
C. S. LewisThe Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no other purpose.
C. S. LewisForgiving and being forgiven are two names for the same thing. The important thing is that a discord has been resolved.
C. S. LewisThe proper rewards are not simply tacked on to the activity for which they are given, but are the activity itself in consummation.
C. S. Lewis... believing in a God whom we cannot but regard as evil, and then, in mere terrified flattery calling Him 'good' and worshipping him is a still greater danger... The ultimate question is whether the doctrine of the goodness of God or that of the inerrancy of scripture is to prevail when they conflict. I think the doctrine of the goodness of God is the more certain of the two. Indeed, only that doctrine renders this worship of Him obligatory or even permissable.
