Quotes about Christianity

If any person desires to think, he must possess memory, imagination and reasoning power; but the Christian has presently lost these powers, hence is unable to think.

And should he attempt to do so he experiences a kind of dazed sensation which stifles any productive thought.
— Watchman Nee
