“William Hunter was fifteen years old when he was burned at the stake in 1555. Like me, he had an insatiable thirst for the Bible, but he had a hurdle I didn’t. Possessing Bibles was illegal for commoners in England. The priests had a monopoly on this book and kept it under lock and key from nonclergy.” (source)

“This is the first case of ‘victim mentality’ in history.” (source)

“From that moment until now, everything has been infected and defected by sin. Roses now have thorns. Cities need policemen. Nations need guns and bullets, and the world needs cemeteries to bury the dead. The world that we live in is a result of the world that we lost.” (source)

“Work is a divine calling for which we were all created. Work is the plan through which we give glory and honor to the God who entrusted us with his creation. When we work we fulfill our design.” (source)
