Simple assent to the gospel, divorced from a transforming commitment to the living Christ, is by Biblical standards less than faith, and less than saving, and to elicit only assent of this kind would be to secure only false conversions.

The books of C.S. Lewis had a very profound, indirect effect on me.

Our best works are shot through with sin and contain something for which we need to be forgiven.

Thank you, Mr.Lewis, for being you. I wouldn't have missed you for the world.

How can we turn our knowledge about God into knowledge of God? The rule for doing this is simple but demanding. It is that we turn each Truth that we learn about God into matter for meditation before God, leading to prayer and praise to God.

We dishonor God if we proclaim a Savior who satisfies and then go around discontent

Not until we have become humble and teachable, standing in awe of God's holiness and sovereignty...a cknowledging our own littleness, distrusting our own thoughts, and willing to have our minds turned upside down, can divine wisdom become ours.
