fun humble mean
Now repentance is no fun at all. It is something much harder than merely eating humble pie. It means unlearning all the self-conceit and self-will that we have been training ourselves into for thousands of years. It means undergoing a kind of death. In fact, it needs a good man to repent. And here's the catch. Only a bad person needs to repent: only a good person can repent perfectly. The worse you are the more you need it and the less you can do it. The only person who could do it perfectly would be a perfect person - and he would not need it.
love-is decision emotion
Love is more than an emotion, it is a decision.
stage producers audience
We are not the playwright, we are not the producer, we are not even the audience. We are on the stage.
right-direction
The right direction leads not only to peace but to knowledge.
enemy world territory
Enemy occupied territory is what the world is.
evil people arithmetic
Good people know about both good and evil: bad people do not know about either.
energy sin holy
Every sin is the distortion of an energy breathed into us - an energy which, if not thus distorted, would have blossomed into one of those holy acts whereof 'God did it' and 'I did it' are both true descriptions.
important christianity can-not
The only thing Christianity can not be...is moderately important.
color proud lasts
It is a poor thing to strike our colors to God when the ship is going down under us; a poor thing to come to Him as a last resort, to offer up 'our own' when it is no longer worth keeping. If God were proud He would hardly have us on such terms: but He is not proud, He stoops to conquer, He will have us even though we have shown that we prefer everything else to Him.
humble vanity people
Vanity is really the least bad and most pardonable sort. The vain person wants praise, applause, admiration too much and is always angling for it. It is a fault, but a childlike and even (in an odd way) a humble fault. It shows that you are not yet completely contented with your own admiration. You value other people enough to want them to look at you. You are in fact still human.
design being-free higher
The happiness which God designs for his higher creatures is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to him.
choosing doctrine far great itself leads obviously people power taken wonder
If there is one great power, and the great power has taken upon itself the right to preempt and is choosing for itself when and in what circumstances it's going to do that, obviously it leads people in the rest of the world to wonder how far this doctrine extends.
english foreign four grammar high languages meant mostly
In my high school, two foreign languages had to be studied, four years of English was required, and that meant mostly grammar and composition.
dark free holy mere places wish
But to hint and hover...when we most wish to be free of them; what is this but cat-and-mouse play, blindman's bluff, a mere jugglery? Why must holy places be dark places?
