World Religions and Cults
We should remember, therefore, the use of Christian words is no guarantee that the thinking or the view of reality being offered is biblical.
Jerram Barrs and Ranald MacCaulay
The mind which asks for a non-miraculous Christianity is a mind in process of relapsing from Christianity into mere "religion."
C.S. Lewis
New Age replacements for religion soothe the conscience instead of rubbing it the wrong way.
Christopher Lasche
All roads lead to the judgment seat of Christ.
Keith Green
Every error may be based upon some part of Scripture taken from its connection; But no error can stand the test of all Scripture.
Robert Chapman
A person does not usually join a cult because he has done an exhaustive analysis of world religions and has decided that a particular cult presents the best theology available. Instead, a person usually joins a cult because he has problems that he is having trouble solving, and the cult promises to solve these problems.
Robert and Gretchen Passantino
The popular point of view is unconsciously syncretistic: it is widely believed that "all religions really mean the same thing."
C.S. Lewis
As Christ is the end of the Law and the Gospel and has within himself all the treasures of wisdom and understanding, so also is he the mark at which all heretics aim and direct their arrows.
John Calvin
Nothing can deceive unless it bears a plausible resemblance to reality.
C.S. Lewis
To pretend that Christianity was intended to stereotype existing forms of government and society, and protect them against change, is to reduce it to the level of Islamism and Brahminism. It is precisely because Christianity has not done this that it has been the religion of the progressive portion of mankind.
John Stuart Mill
Ignorance is the mark of the heathen, knowledge of the true church, and conceit of the heretics.
Clement of Alexandria
Theologians are called to be the church's water engineers and sewage officers; it is their job to see that God's pure truth flows abundantly where it is needed, and to filter out any intrusive pollution that might damage health.
J.I. Packer
It is surely harmful to souls to make it a heresy to believe what is proved.
Galileo
Heresy is the school of pride.
George Herbert
As Christ is the end of the Law and the Gospel and has within himself all the treasures of wisdom and understanding, so also is he the mark at which all heretics aim and direct their arrows.
John Calvin
...he that will blow the Coals must not wonder if some Sparks do fly in his face...
Richard Baxter
Our twentieth century, far from being notable for scientific scepticism, is one of the most credulous eras in all history. It is not that people believe in nothing - which would be bad enough - but that they believe in anything - which is really terrible.
Malcolm Muggeridge
