TODAY'S QUOTE



"We have a feed-me-first fixation.  Christianity
today is stuck in a rut of self-development.  It is
a me-and-mine style religion that survives on 
and endless diet of books, cassettes, conferences
and seminars.

"This fat-head faith has produced a generation
of Christians who know all the answers but won't
cross the street to help a neighbor in spiritual
distress.  This demonic reasoning goes, 'Me first-
after all, I can't help others until I help myself."  

Y.P. Yohannan in
The Road To Reality

"The Gateway to Christianity is not through an
intricate labyrinth of dogma, but by a simple 
belief in the person of Christ."

-William Lyon Phelps

"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often
that this great nation was founded, not by religionists,
but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel
of Jesus Christ."  
-Patrick Henry

"We are told that Christ was killed for us, 
that His death has washed out our sins,
and that by dying He disabled death itself...
That is Christianity.  That is what has to be
believed."   
- C.S. Lewis

"The greatest proof of Christianity for others is not
how far a man can logically analyze his reasons  for
believing, but how far in practice he will stake his 
life on his belief." - T.S. Eliot

EXPERT MECHANICS

As a retired professional auto technician I am constantly
amused by teen age boys and cars.

You have noticed it too.
Let a teenage boy learn a few automobile terms like;
engine, crankshaft, camshaft and piston.  And then 
possibly even have had the experience of changing a
tire.  Well, Wow.

Let there be a couple of girls around and the boy
suddenly becomes a full fledged ASE certified auto
technician.  He knows everything and can fix anything.

The same thing is true in "Religion".  And in particular
"Christianity".  Let people learn a few "Christian" terms
or "rituals" and they think they know all about "Christianity".
Or are a "Christian".  Especially if they have gone to "Divinity 
School" and learned some big "Christian" words.

What they fail to recognize is that "True Christianity" is
not beliefs or rituals or precepts - But a relationship with
God himself.   

The next time you hear someone spouting of about Christianity
consider that their knowledge may only be something out of
their head, not from the reality of a relationship with God.
