The attempt by man to impose his word on God's Universe, and to replace God's order with a man-made system, is sin, insanity and death- R. J. Ryushdoony

When we disobey God we defy His authority and despise His holiness. BUT WHE WE FAIL TO TRUST GOD WE DOUBT HIS SOVEREIGNTY AND QUESTION HIS GOODNESS.-Jerry Bridges

As we come to know God, we recognize that he initiates our knowledge, that his Word is the ultimate authority for our knowledge, and that in knowing God we come into a personal relationship with him. Theology is the application of Scripture to all areas of human life. Exegetical, biblical, and systematic theology look at the whole Bible from various perspectives -John Frame, Salvation Belongs to the Lord, pg. 72
Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.- Marcus Tullius Cicero
