The first thing that stuck in the minds of the disciples was not the empty tomb, but rather the empty grave clothes - undisturbed in form and position.

I always tried to be open-minded, but not so open-minded that my brains would fall out. As G. K. Chesterton says, "The purpose of opening the mind, as of opening the mouth, is to close it again on something solid." I opened my mind, and I finally closed it on the most solid reality I had ever experienced. On December 19, 1959, at 8:30PM, during my second year at the university, I became a Christian.

Christ appeared alive on several occasions after the cataclysmic events of that first Easter.

A lot of people say, well how can a loving God send anyone to hell? First of all God doesn't send anyone to hell. If we go to hell, it's by our own choice. But when somebody says to me, how can a loving God allow anyone to go to hell, I'll turn around and say, "Well how can a holy, just, righteous God allow sin into His presence?"

I am not a Christian because God changed my life; I am a Christian because of my convictions about who Jesus Christ is.

I've never had anyone define purity. You probably can't define purity. Purity is to live according to original design.

The downfall of the church will not come from a lack of apologetic teaching; it will come from disintegration of the families in the church.
