More quotes by Francis Schaeffer
If Christianity is really true, then it involves the whole man, including his intellect and creativeness. Christianity is not just 'dogmatically' true or 'doctrinally' true. Rather, it is true to what is there, true in the whole area of the whole man in all of life.
Francis Schaeffer
Christianity provides a unified answer for the whole of life.
Francis Schaeffer
There is no place in God's world where there are no people who will come and share a home as long as it is a real home.
Francis Schaeffer
A Christian should use these arts to the glory of God, not just as tracts, mind you, but as things of beauty to the praise of God. An art work can be a doxology in itself.
Francis Schaeffer
Truth carries with it confrontation. Truth demands confrontation loving confrontation, but confrontation nevertheless.
Francis Schaeffer
What we, the Christian community, have to do is to refuse men the right to ravish our land, just as we refuse them the right to ravish our women to insist that somebody accepts a little less profit by not exploiting nature.
Francis Schaeffer
The modern concept of separation is an argument for a total separation of religion from the state. The consequence of the acceptance of the doctrine leads to the removal of religion as an influence in civil government.
Francis Schaeffer
Christianity is the greatest intellectual system the mind of man has ever touched.
Francis Schaeffer
And the purpose of our creation, in which all our subsidiary purposes fit, is to be in a personal relationship to God, in communion with him, in love, by choice, the creature before the Creator.
Francis Schaeffer
Jesus taught that the mark of the Christian is the observable love shown among all true believers.
Francis Schaeffer
Belief does not change what is.
Francis Schaeffer
If I'm going to be in the right relationship with God, I should treat the things he has made in the same way he treats them.
Francis Schaeffer
There is no use of Evangelicalism seeming to get larger and larger, if at the same time appreciable parts of Evangelicalism are getting soft at that which is the central core, namely the Scriptures.
Francis Schaeffer
Truth carries with it confrontation.
Francis Schaeffer
Truth always carries with it confrontation. Truth demands confrontation loving confrontation nevertheless. If our reflex action is always accommodation regardless of the centrality of the truth involved, there is something wrong.
Francis Schaeffer
The soul is not more important than the body. God made the whole man and the whole man is important.
Francis Schaeffer
... you are not Christ's disciple, in the sense of following him, if this is not your way of life: rejected and slain daily!
Francis Schaeffer
To fail to exhibit that we take truth seriously at those points where there is a cost in our doing so, is to push the next generation in the relative, dialectical millstream that surrounds us.
Francis Schaeffer
...that is our calling: to show that there is a reality in personal relationship, and not just words about it.
Francis Schaeffer
Hudson Taylor said, The Lord's work done in the Lord's way will never fail to have the Lord's provision. ...The Lord's work done in human energy is not the Lord's work any longer. It is something, but it is not the Lord's work.
Francis Schaeffer
