Any Christian worth listening to loves the cross and is loath to see it robbed of its glory.

To ridicule what the cross accomplished is to make war with the heart of the gospel and the comfort of God’s people…

No doubt, some Christians get worked up over the smallest controversies, making a forest fire out of a Yankee Candle.

But there is an opposite danger–and that is to be so calm, so middle-of-the-road, so above-the-fray that you no longer feel the danger of false doctrine.

You always sound analytical, never alarmed.

Always crying for much-neglected conversation, never crying over a much-maligned cross.

There is something worse than hurting feelings, and that is trampling upon human hearts. (Online source)
