"It is right to protest against an oppressive authority but the Christian mind distinguishes between tyranny on the one hand and authority on the other.
True authority combines freedom from tyranny with freedom under authority".
Dr John Stott - "The Bible and the Christian Life" DVD - Session 1; "The Authority of the Bible" - Zondervan (2006).
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
