We uphold the capitalist free economy as a way of life, as the counterpart of the free society. It guarantees as no other can, that men shall be free to make their own choices, right or wrong, wise or foolish, to obey their own consciences, to follow their own initiatives. - Enoch Powell, Sunday Telegraph, 7 July 1963

"There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Tim. 2:5).
There are two gaps between God and man that need to be bridged: the metaphysical (how do you reach infinity from finitude) and the moral (how do you overcome the equally absolute opposition between holiness and sin?). Jesus overcomes both: the metaphysical gap in His Person (one Person with two natures, divine and human) and the moral gap in His sacrifice. -Donald Williams in Francis Schaeffer Studies Discussion Group.21 August2018
