Gadiantons and the Silver Sword (Tennis Shoes, #2) QUOTES

1 " There are only two forces at work in this world- black and white. Only people are grey. "

― Chris Heimerdinger , Gadiantons and the Silver Sword (Tennis Shoes, #2)

2 " The Lord commands us to learn and discover all we can in this life. There's nothing wrong with wanting to know the mysteries of outer space or the latent powers of the mind. The problem comes when we desire to use that knowledge for our own gratification, rather than to build the kingdom of God. "

3 " The Lord commands us to learn and discover all we can in this life. There's nothing wrong with wanting to know the mysteries of outer space or the latent powers of the mind. The problem comes when we desire to use that knowledge for our own gratification, rather than to build the kingdom of God... It's an unwise habit to use knowledge to further personal ends. Truth should never be used as a means to make us prisoners. It was meant to make us free. "

4 " ... We [can't] escape the influence of sin in the world, but [do] we have to pay money to see and hear it firsthand? "

― Chris Heimerdinger , Gadiantons and the Silver Sword (Tennis Shoes, #2)

5 " ...Teachings are given to different men under different circumstances and in different times... [but] ...the Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever. If a parent commands a little child not to play with matches, and then commands a teenager to light the campfire, is this a contradiction? It's only a question of preparedness - one is ready and one is not. "
