The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism Quotes

“However marred, the world vessel of clay is not without some of the influence of the Master Molder. God has not left Himself entirely without witness in the global calamity; He discloses Himself in the tragedies as well as the triumphs of

There is a constructive work of God in history, even where the redemptive Gospel does not do a recreating work.

It aims at a re-created society; where it is resisted, it often encourages the displacement of a low ideology by one relatively higher.”
