"And one of the elders said to me, 'Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.' And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain...." - Revelation 5:4-5

“It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.” - C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory

"Moreover, even perfectly sincere Christian believers can be heard to argue that Christian students ought to be exposed to the dominant secular world-views of our time so that they can live in the society that those views have created and bear witness to it. There is some merit in this argument, and there is no doubt that a Christian witness is sorely needed on secular campuses, but where will the driving force for that witness come from if there is nowhere that it can develop? The case for having Christian institutions of higher learning is not weakened by the fact that we live in a pluralistic and secular society. On the contrary, it may be stronger than ever and vital if Christian voices are ever going to make themselves heard in the modern world.” - Gerald Bray, "The Challenge to the Mind in Christian Higher Education Today" in Thinking Christianly
