Christianity has been successfully attacked and marginalized… because those who professed belief were unable to defend the faith from attack, even though its attackers’ arguments were deeply flawed (William Wilberforce Quotes)
Can you tell a plain man the road to heaven? Certainly, turn at once to the right, and then go straight forward (William Wilberforce Quotes)
I must secure more time for private devotions. I have been living far too public for me. The shortening of devotions starves the soul, it grows lean and faint. I have been keeping too late hours (William Wilberforce Quotes)
