Any denomination or church group that forsakes inerrancy will end up shipwrecked. It is impossible to prevent the surrender of other important doctrinal teachings of the Word of God when inerrancy is gone.

More quotes by Francis Schaeffer
The basic problem of the Christians in this country in the last eighty years or so, in regard to society and in regard to government, is that they have seen things in bits and pieces instead of totals.
Francis Schaeffer
Modern man has both feet firmly planted in mid-air
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
We cannot deal with people like human beings, we cannot deal with them on the high level of true humanity, unless we really know their origin-who they are. God tells man who he is. God tells us that He created man in His image. So man is something wonderful.
Francis Schaeffer
The ordinary Christian with the Bible in his hand can say that the majority is wrong.
Francis Schaeffer
Christ's crucifixion was on a hill, by a road, where everybody who passed by could not only see his pain, but also his shame. It was not done in a shadow, hidden away somewhere.
Francis Schaeffer
If there is no final place for civil disobedience, then the government has been made autonomous, and as such, it has been put in the place of the living God.
Francis Schaeffer
If there is no absolute moral standard, then one cannot say in a final sense that anything is right or wrong.
Francis Schaeffer
Today the separation of church and state in America is used to silence the church. When Christians speak out on issues, the hue and cry from the humanist state and media is that Christians, an all religions, are prohibited from speaking since there is a separation of church and state.
Francis Schaeffer
Truth carries with it confrontation. Truth demands confrontation loving confrontation, but confrontation nevertheless.
Francis Schaeffer
If there is no absolute by which to judge society, society is absolute.
Francis Schaeffer
You must not lose confidence in God because you lost confidence in your pastor. If our confidence in God had to depend upon our confidence in any human person, we would be on shifting sand.
Francis Schaeffer
The church's or Christian group's methods are as important as its message.
Francis Schaeffer
The moral absolutes rest upon God's character. The moral commands He has given to men are an expression of His character. Men as created in His image are to live by choice on the basis of what God is. The standards of morality are determined by what conforms to His character, while those things which do not conform are immoral.
Francis Schaeffer
Things, things, things. Always more things, and success is seen as the abundance of things.
Francis Schaeffer
There is a sad myth going around today - the myth of neutrality. According to this myth, the secular world gives every point of view an equal chance to be heard. And it works fairly well - unless you are a Christian.
Francis Schaeffer
Most people catch their presuppositions from their family and surrounding society the way a child catches measles.
Francis Schaeffer
The spiritual battle, the loss of victory, is always in the thought-world.
Francis Schaeffer
Belief does not change what is.
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
