(Swindoll) Tells story of a young, ambitious businessman interviewing an older, successful executive who was known to be a man of few words. The young man asked him the secret to being successful. He replied," Good decisions". Young man made note of that and then asked him how you make good decisions to which the older man replied, " experience". Young man made note of that and then asked him how he got his experience and the older gentleman replied," bad decisions".
(James Robison) Relativists who wish to remove Christian ideals and ideas from public life are not simply trying to ensure objectivity and tolerance in our culture;they are seeking to exchange the influence of one worldview for another
(James Robison) When the task of faith is limited merely to offering indi- viduals inner peace and transquility, then virtually all moral influence is removed from the world.There is little or nothing to restrain the ambitions of evil people people and movements.There are no checks, no balances, no standards, and no limitations. The wise counsel of the ages goes unheard and unheeded. All the foundations of civil society are threatened.
