Christianity is not engrossed by this transitory world, but measures all things by the thought of eternity.
John Gresham MachenFaith is indeed intellectual; it involves an apprehension of certain things as facts; and vain is the modern effort to divorce faith from knowledge. But although faith is intellectual, it is not only intellectual. You cannot have faith without having knowledge; but you will not have faith if you have only knowledge.
John Gresham MachenGod is the ruler of history. His times are well chosen The Roman Empire was an instrument in his hand. And so are the nations of the modern world.
John Gresham MachenThe more we know of God, the more unreservedly we will trust him; the greater our progress in theology, the simpler and more child-like will be our faith
