The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians.

No religion has ever been greater than its idea of God.

Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward the idea of God, the reason being they are dedicated to the task of accounting for things and are impatient with anything that refuses to give an account of itself. The philosopher and the scientist will admit that there is much that they do not know; but that is quite another thing from admitting there is something which they can never know, which indeed they have no technique for discovering.

The idea that God will pardon a rebel who has not given up his rebellion is contrary both to the Scriptures and to common sense.

The idea of the divine-human friendship originated with God. Had not God said first 'Ye are my friends?' (John 15:14)

How utterly terrible is the current idea that Christians can serve God at their own convenience.

Always the most revealing thing about the church is her idea of God.

The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians... The 'worship' growing out of such a view of life is as far off center as the view itself - a sort of sanctified nightclub without the champagne and the dressed-up drunks.

The idea that God will pardon a rebel who has not given up his rebellion is contrary both to the Scriptures and to common sense. How horrible to contemplate a church full of persons who have been pardoned but who still love sin and hate the ways of righteousness. And how much more horrible to think of heaven as filled with sinners who had not repented nor changed their way of living.
