"The abnegation of reason is not the evidence of faith, but the confession of despair."

- J.B. Lightfoot
The Defining Moment

"The fact that Jesus Christ died is more important than the fact that I shall die, and the fact that Jesus Christ rose from the dead is the sole ground of my hope that I, too, shall be raised on the Last Day. Our salvation is "external to us." I find no salvation in my life history, but only in the history of Jesus Christ."
-- Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together

Q: When did you get saved?
A: Oh, about 2000 years ago, give or take.
