• It’s all right,” she said. “You’re through.” “Jesus,” he finally managed, pushing water off his face. “Jesus Christ and John the Baptist. For that matter, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John.” Still not enough. He needed to reach back to the Old Testament for this. “Obadiah. Nebuchadnezzar. Methuselah and Job.” “Be calm,” she said, taking him by the shoulders. “Be calm. And there are women in the Bible, you know.” “Yes. As I recall it, they were trouble, every last one.

• The gospel is like a caged lion,' said the great baptist preacher Charles Spurgeon. 'It does not need to be defended, it simply needs to be let out of it's cage' Today, the cage is our accommodation to the secular/sacred split that reduces Christianity to a matter of personal belief. To unlock the cage, we need to become utterly convinced that, as Francis Schaeffer said, Christianity is not merely religious truth, it is total truth- truth about the whole of reality.

• I would not send my child to a vacation Bible school in 99.9% of the Baptist churches in America. Have some teacher that doesn't even understand anything about the gospel of Jesus Christ, ask those little children, 'How many of you want to go to Heaven?' and damn most of them! Harden their heart to the gospel with some silly profession of faith because it was a silly proclamation of the gospel! It brought no genuine repentance, it brought no faith; it's no different than the Roman church that baptizes every infant that is born.

• The work of God in salvation is a supernatural work, but in the United States of America and among Baptists it's been reduced down to a few evangelical hoops that if we can get someone to jump through, we declare them popishly to be savedit has been the pulpit that's sending more people to Hell than any liberal organization on the face of the earthnot a liberal Methodist, not a liberal Episcopalian, but a Baptist who claims to know God's word and yet does not understand the gospel of Jesus Christ.

• A pocas puertas estaba la Iglesia Bautista, y mientras caminaba hacia ella empecé a pensar que la gente no quería que compartiera su iglesia. Cuando entré por la puerta de la iglesia baptista estaba tenso, esperando que me dieran un golpecito en el hombro... pero en lugar de eso me dieron un libro de himnos y me dieron la bienvenida a la iglesia. Me senté durante todo el servicio... Este vaivén no me estaba poniendo muy nervioso.

• Había oído hablar de los baptistas a la madre de Jacob Henry. Según ella, los bautistas eran muy raros. Te metían en agua para ver si eras santo. Luego te sumergían en el agua tres veces. No importaba si sabías nadar o no. Si no salías, morías y tu alma mortal iba al infierno. Pero si salías, era aún peor. Tenías que ser Bautista.

• Uno no puede evitar preguntarse tristemente, ¿por qué el amor al oro es más potente que el amor a las almas? El número de hombres que minan y buscan oro en Shantung es más del doble del número de hombres que representan a los Bautistas del Sur. ¡Qué lección para que los Bautistas del Sur reflexionen!

• Pablo señala que algunos dicen: 'Yo soy de Pablo', mientras que otros dicen: 'Yo soy de Apolos', y pregunta: '¿No es eso carnal? Pero, ¿cuál es la diferencia entre decir eso o decir: 'Soy bautista', 'Soy presbiteriano', 'Soy metodista', 'Soy católico'? He descubierto que cuanto más espiritual se vuelve una persona, menos confesional es. Debemos darnos cuenta de que todos formamos parte del Cuerpo de Cristo y que no hay divisiones reales en el Cuerpo. Todos somos uno.
