Quotation Friday: Irony & Sola Scriptura
"Ironically, many modern Evangelical advocates of sola scriptura, who claim to believe in the perspicuity of Scripture, deny that perspicuity by their rejection of the ecumenical creeds-the common consensual faith of the Church" (The Shape of Sola Scriptura, Keith A. Mathison, 280).

Quotation Friday: Cyprian on What You Should Fear
"For it is not persecution alone that is to be feared; nor those things which advance by open attack to overwhelm and cast down the servants of God. Caution is more easy where danger is manifest, and the mind is prepared beforehand for the contest when the adversary avows himself. The enemy is more to be feared and to be guarded against, when he creeps on us secretly; when, deceiving by the appearance of peace, he steals forward by hidden approaches, whence also he has received the name of the Serpent" (On the Unity of the Church).
