Philip Yancey Quotes

I Am Forced To Reexamine. Thomas Merton's Words About The Bible In General Apply To The Old Testament In Particular: There Is, In A Word, Nothing Comfortable About The Bible - Until We Manage To Get So Used To It That We Make It Comfortable For Ourselves ... Have We Ceased To Question The Book And Be Questioned By It? Have We Ceased To Fight It? Then Perhaps Our Reading Is No Longer Serious. For Most People, The Understanding Of The Bible Is, And Should Be, A Struggle: Not Merely To Find Meanings That Can Be Looked Up In Books Of Reference, But To Come To Terms Personally With The Stark Scandal And Contradiction In The Bible Itself ... Let Us Not Be Too Sure We Know The Bible Just Because We Have Learned Not To Be Astonished At It, Just Because We Have Learned Not To Have Problems With It.
