He is no fool who makes this his constant prayer--"Would you, Father of
infinite compassion and lover of my soul, grant to me as much intimacy with
your Son, Jesus Christ, as is possible for a human being on this earth to
possess?"--Chip Kirk
The greatest enemy of hunger for God is not poison but apple pie. It is not
the banquet of the wicked that dulls our appetite for heaven, but endless nibbling
at the table of the world. It is not the X-rated video, but the prime-time dribble
of triviality we drink in every night. For when these replace an appetite for God
himself, the idolatry is scarcely recognizable, and almost incurable.--John Piper
Oh God, either fill me or kill me, but please don't let me grievously dishonor you
or grossly delude myself by naively practicing a lukewarm churchianity that I
foolishly mistake for biblically authentic and passionate Christianity.--Chip Kirk
So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot or cold, I will spit you out of my
mouth.--Revelation 3:16
No empty words and no white lies, no token prayers, no compromise.--Keith Green
