It bums me out tremendously what the church has become, and if it's got me bummed, imagine what Jesus Christ must be feeling.

In the Church of Jesus Christ there can and should be no non-theologians.

One Tree is of life, the other is of death. Do our fruits hang from the bad tree, or the good? Only by testing the fruits of a Tree (or, rather, testing ourselves) can we truly see what kind of tree we are!

If the church is to survive as a place where head and heart are equal partners in faith, then we will need to commit ourselves once again not to the worship of Christ, but to the imitation of Jesus. His invitation was not to believe, but to follow. (p. 145)

[...] if Jesus is not the answer to the human condition, there is no answer.

You discover your identity and purpose through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
