   The intellectual earmark of religion

   is certainty; the philosophical characteristic

   is consistency; the social fruits

   are love and service

   …many who are inwardly sure about God

   fear to assert such feelings of certainty

   because of the multiplicity and cleverness

   of those who assemble objections and

   magnify difficulties about believing in God

   It requires no great depth of intellect

   to pick flaws, ask questions

   or raise objections

   Of God, the most inescapable of all presences,

   the most real of all facts, the most living of all truths,

   the most loving of all friends, and he most divine

   of all values, we have the right to be the most certain

   of all universe experiences

   The wisdom of the world

   is not necessary to an 

   exercise of saving faith

   in eternal realities

   In reality, every human being defines religion

   in the terms of his own experiential interpretation

   of the divine impulse emanation from

   the God spirit that indwells him…

   The psychology of a child

   is naturally positive,

   not negative

   The certainty of the God-knowing religionist

   should not be disturbed by the uncertainty

   of the doubting materialist,

   rather should the uncertainty of the unbeliever

   be mightily challenged by the profound faith

   and unshakable certainty of the experiential believer

    When reason once recognizes

    right and wrong, it exhibits wisdom;

    when wisdom chooses between right and wrong,

    truth and error,

    it demonstrates spirit leading
