21 " Complete honesty is not the same thing as full disclosure. "
― Ron Brackin
22 " One difference between the Bible and the Constitution is that we can still talk to the author of the Bible to discover original intent. "
23 " We praise God, not because he needs our praise (for all glory resides in and on him), but in order to see him more clearly, enlarge our soul, and relieve our spirit. "
24 " Lest we lay too heavy a criticism against any government administration--local, state, or federal--we are reminded that American government is representational. Political leaders reflect the people who elect them (as well as those who fail in this civic responsibility) as a mirror reflects those who gaze into it. "
25 " Do what you will, but never out of fear. "
26 " Not much has changed in the past 6,000 years. We still hide from God because we know we're naked. "
27 " The right to choose does not mean the choice is right. "
28 " While many people are proud of being self-made, it only explains all the flaws. "
29 " Is there anything God cannot do?Yes.God cannot learn, because he already knows everything and never learned what he knows.He cannot lie, because he is truth. God cannot reject anyone who has accepted his Son.Whether you accept or reject God, he cannot love you more, he cannot love you less, and he cannot stop loving you with all his heart.What a wonderful, limited God! "
30 " America is a post-Christian nation only in the sense that we have built a tenement on the foundation of a palace. "
31 " Patience is not developed by being forced to wait in long lines or for long periods of time. Patience is a decision: to sit back rather than lean forward, to shift your weight from the balls of your feet to your heels. To settle your thoughts on now, to enjoy the journey, to give something or someone time to grow. "
32 " Nothing conquers the chaos around me like the calm assurance that I am at peace with God. "
33 " Progressive. n. One who is unable to distinguish between novelty and enlightenment. "
34 " Many who have found Jesus Christ wanting in time of need have God confused with a genii. "
35 " Subjective truth is an oxymoron; objective truth is redundant. Subjective truth is feathers in a wind tunnel, blowing anywhere and everywhere. Objective truth is an anvil, bolted to the floor of the wind tunnel. Subjective truth is your truth and my truth; objective truth is Jesus Christ—immovable, immutable. "
36 " Followers of Jesus do well to spend more time engaging him than explaining him. "
37 " To hear a truth, we must first suspect that our present truth might not be. Like Alice’s White Queen, who often believed six impossible things before breakfast, I believed many things in my life, considering them to be true at any given time but suspecting that they might not be, until I met Jesus Christ. When we encounter The Truth, we know it and can only accept or reject it. Denial is not an option. "
38 " The artist is the only one qualified to criticize his art, because only the artist knows what he was trying to express and how satisfied he is with the attempt. "
39 " Capitalism—trade and industry controlled by people instead of a state—is a fine notion. Sadly, it has devolved into a culture in which tradesmen and industrialists lie, cheat, and sacrifice themselves and others for money to buy stuff that doesn’t work, doesn’t last, and doesn’t matter. And after they’re dead, their lives haven’t mattered. Even if they built a city, others will tear it down one day to build a park. Successful capitalists invest themselves in the lives of others. "
40 " Save the trees! Return to the gold standard! "
