Worthy Quotes

"People like Dawkins hold that there is a conflict between science and religion because they think there is a conflict between evolution and theism; the truth of the matter, however, is that the conflict is between science and naturalism, not between science and belief in God." - Alvin Plantiga

"Faith is a response to evidence, not a rejoicing in the absence of evidence." - John Lennox

'I submit that, far from science having buried God, not only do the results of science point towards his existence, but the scientific enterprise itself is validated by his existence." - John Lennox

"Reason is itself a matter of faith. It is an act of faith to assert that our thoughts have any relation to reality at all." - G.K. Chesterton

"Where a person or a group is not spreading the Gospel, they are losing their grasp on what it actually is." - John Piper

"Liberal churches have redefined compassion to mean that the church changes its message to meet modern demands." - Albert Mohler

"An imbecile habit has arisen in the modern controversy of saying that such and such a creed can be held in one age but cannot be held in another...What a man can believe depends upon his philosophy, not upon the clock or century." - G.K. Chesterton
