Bangkok and Athens: Cities of the gods

Posted in Uncategorized on August 2, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I have only been in Bangkok for a little over a week now, however, some things are instantly observable. My first observation, Bangkok breathes religion. Athens did also. The comparison between Athens and Bangkok is eerily similar. I can’t help but feel as Paul did in Athens.

"Genuine New Testament Christianity doesn't hang out at headquarters; it gets into the trenches with the wounded and weary" Charles Swindol
"Materialism gave us a theory which explained everything else in the whole universe but which made it impossible to believe that our thinking was valid" C.S. Lewis
“The supreme function of reason is to show man that some things are beyond reason.” Blaise Pascal
"I spent a long time trying to come to grips with my doubts, when suddenly I realized I better come to grips with what I believe. I have since moved from the agony of questions that I cannot answer to the reality of answers that I cannot escape and it is a great relief. " Tom Skinner
“I hold that belief in God is not merely as reasonable as other belief, or even a little or infinitely more probably true than other belief; I hold rather that unless you believe in God you can logically believe in nothing else.” Cornelius Van Til (1895–1987)
"I am more convinced of the reality of Jesus Christ than I am of my own reality." Malcolm Muggeridge
"Every word should be allowed to stand in its natural meaning and should not be abandoned unless faith forces us to it. The literal sense of Scripture alone is the whole essence of faith and of Christian theology." Luther
"Naturalism by its purpose engineers the displacement of the miracle and puts in its place explanations that defy reason." Ravi Zacharias
"Let us know that the true meaning of Scripture is the natural and obvious meaning. Let us embrace and abide it resolutely. It is the first business of an interpreter to let the author say what he does say instead of attribution to him what we think he ought to say." Calvin
"We reject, with scorn, all those learned and labored myths that Moses was but a legendary figure upon whom the priesthood and the people hung their essential social, moral and religious ordinances. We believe that the most scientific view, the most up-to-date and rationalistic conception will find its fullest satisfaction in taking the Bible story literally, and in identifying one of the greatest human beings with the most decisive leap foward ever discernible in the human story." Winston Churchill
"It is not common sense that the words of Jesus give us, but uncommon sense. Jesus turned the world's standards upside down, because into a mad world He brings the supreme sanity of God." William Barclay
"The skeptic, of course, will challenge such credulity that accepts wholesale such stories, not realizing that what they swallow in a glass of water is a miracle in and of itself" Ravi Zacharias
"No one, having any knowledge of the existing facts, will deny the comparative lack of expository preaching in the pulpit today. And none should do other than lament the lack. Topical, controversial, and historical preaching have, one supposes, their rightful place. But expository preaching, the prayful expounding of the Word of God, is preaching that is preaching - pulpit effort par excellence." O.M. Bounds (written in the early 20th century)
"Now, in fact, I feel that the whole of history and civilization would be unintelligible to me if it were not for my belief in God. So true is this, that I propose to argue that unless God is back of everything, you cannot find meaning in anything." Cornelius Van Til
