"Any of it [teaching] that is good is in the Word of God, and any that is not in the Word of God is not good. I am a Bible Christian and if an archangel with a wingspread as broad as a constellation shining like the sun were to come and offer me some new truth, I'd ask him for a reference. If he could not show me where it is found in the Bible, I would bow him out and say, 'I'm awfully sorry, you don't bring any references with you'"- A.W. Tozer

George MacLeod of Scotland said, "I simply argue that the cross should be raised at the center of the marketplace as well as on the steeple of the church. I am recovering the claim that Jesus was not crucified in a cathedral between two candles, but on a cross between two thieves; on the town’s garbage heap; at a crossroad, so cosmopolitan they had to write His title in Hebrew and Latin and Greek . . . at the kind of a place where cynics talk smut, and thieves curse, and soldiers gamble. Because that is where He died. And that is what He died for. And that is what He died about. That is where church-men ought to be and what church-men ought to be about."

"In view of the testimony offered by the writers of scripture, Christian faith rests on the surest grounds possible. Of course I've not seen every claim by every religion there is, but of those I have seen none other comes even close to having the grounds we have for Christian trust in God. Contrary to some, even some Christians, our faith is not a blind faith, but one backed up by clear and evident proof, beginning with the existence of God to the revelation of Himself in Jesus Christ. Those who reject the evidence do not do so because of the lack of evidence, but because of their own errant hearts."

Freedom is not the right to do as you please, but the liberty to do as you ought.

Actually Josh Mcdowell said it this way......

"true freedom isn't doing what you want to do, but doing what you know is right."
