"Woe to the makers of literal translations, who by rendering every word weaken the meaning! It is indeed by so doing that we can say the letter kills and the spirit gives life."

Previous Quote

I love unique platforms in order to do your best to stand for your faith as long as it's not something that is hurtful or negative. I welcome that opportunity. It's always fun. But you do have to use as much wisdom and discernment as you can.

— Stephen Baldwin

Next Quote

One of the most subtle burdens God ever puts on us as saints is this burden of discernment concerning other souls. He reveals things in order that we may take the burden of these souls before Him and form the mind of Christ about them. It is not that we bring God into touch with our minds, but that we rouse ourselves until God is able to convey His mind to us about the one for whom we intercede.

— Oswald Chambers
