“It is not the man who hides himself in a cave, but the man who glorifies God as a master or servant, parent or child, in the family and in the street, in business and in trade, who is the Scriptural type of a sanctified man.” —J.C. Ryle, Holiness

“We state and commend the faith only in so far as we go out and put ourselves inside the doubts of the doubters, the questions of the questioners and the loneliness of those who have lost their way.” —Michael Ramsey, Image Old and New

“Unfortunately, some of this [New Age] teaching has permeated the church, with some Christians urging that we must not only love God and our neighbor, but we must also love ourselves. But no, this is surely a mistake for three reasons. First, Jesus spoke of “the first and great commandment” and of “the second,” but did not mention a third. Second, self-love is one of the signs of the last days (2 Timothy 3:2). Third, the meaning of agape love is the sacrifice of oneself in the service of others. Sacrificing oneself in the service of oneself is clearly nonsense!” —
