Martin Luther King Jr. Quotes

Wherever The Early Christians Entered A Town The Power Structure Got Disturbed And Immediately Sought To Convict Them For Being 'disturbers Of The Peace' And 'outside Agitators.' But They Went On With The Conviction That They Were A 'colony Of Heaven' And Had To Obey God Rather Than Man. They Were Small In Number But Big In Commitment. They Were Too God-intoxicated To Be 'astronomically Intimidated.' They Brought An End To Such Ancient Evils As Infanticide And Gladiatorial Contest. Things Are Different Now. The Contemporary Church Is So Often A Weak, Ineffectual Voice With An Uncertain Sound. It Is So Often The Archsupporter Of The Status Quo. Far From Being Disturbed By The Presence Of The Church, The Power Structure Of The Average Community Is Consoled By The Church's Silent And Often Vocal Sanction Of Things As They Are.
