You must not lose confidence in God because you lost confidence in your pastor. If our confidence in God had to depend upon our confidence in any human person, we would be on shifting sand.

So our building of the visible Church becomes much like any natural business function, using natural means and natural motives.

Killing of animals for food is one thing, but on the other hand they do not exist simply as things to be slaughtered. This is true of fishing, too. Many men fish and leave their victims to rot and stink. But what about the fish? Has he no rights - not to be romanticized as though he were a man - but real rights?

... you are not Christ's disciple, in the sense of following him, if this is not your way of life: rejected and slain daily!

In passing, we should note this curious mark of our own age: the only absolute allowed is the absolute insistence that there is no absolute.

You must not lose confidence in God because you lost confidence in your pastor. If our confidence in God had to depend upon our confidence in any human person, we would be on shifting sand.

True spirituality consists in living moment to moment by the grace of Jesus Christ.
