Please will you do my job for me.
I think God wants us to love Him more, not to love others less.
Because we love something else more than this world, we love even this world more than those who know no other.
For the Christian, there are, strictly speaking, no chances. A secret Master of the Ceremonies has been at work.
The Christian idea of ‘putting on Christ’ is the whole of Christianity.
The door on which we have been knocking all our lives will open at last.
There is no doctrine which I would more willingly remove from Christianity than the doctrine of hell, if it lay in my power. But it has the support of Scripture and, especially, of our Lord’s own words; it has always been held by the Christian Church, and it has the support of reason.
Surely arrested development consists not in refusing to lose old things but in failing to add new things.
The first fact in the history of Christendom is a number of people who say they have seen the Resurrection.
Whenever a person dwells chiefly, or even frequently, on the faults of other people’s religions, he is in a bad condition.
Your book bill ought to be your biggest extravagance.
If we ignore it the truth that God is love may slyly come to mean for us the converse, that love is God.
Unless I believe in God, I cannot believe in thought: so I can never use thought to disbelieve in God.
A recovery of the old sense of sin is essential to Christianity. Christ takes it for granted that men are bad. Until we really feel this assumption of His to be true, though we are part of the world He came to save, we are not part of the audience to whom His words are addressed.
When we are lost in the woods, the sight of a signpost is a great matter.
The only thing one can usually change in one’s situation is oneself. And yet one can’t change that either-only ask Our Lord to do so.
The point is that for our ancestors, the universe was a picture; for modern physics it is a story.
Above all else, the devil can not stand to be mocked.
In the science, Evolution is a theory about changes; in the myth it is a fact about improvements.
Actually it seems to me that one can hardly say anything either bad enough or good enough about life.
