jesus son people
When I sign people's stuff I put down John 3:16 and 17. Most people can tell you what 16 says, OK. 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son.' But they don't know nothin' about 17. It says Jesus didn't come to condemn us. If anybody had a right to condemn someone, it would be the son of God. If he didn't do it, then hey, we definitely are not qualified to do it. Si Robertson

Robert Farrar Capon

Christianity is NOT a religion; it is the proclamation of the end of religion. Religion is a human activity dedicated to the job of reconciling God to humanity and humanity to itself.

It is the bizarre proclamation that religion is over - period. Robert Farrar Capon

Be he did it; and therefore, menace or not, here you stand: uncondemned, forever, now. What are you going to do with your freedom? Robert Farrar Capon
