Me: Your turtle friend looks like he does not have a lot of room.
Prodigal: I think he has just enough.
Me: That is good to hear!
This is from Nicolas Berdyaev
There is no longer any room in the world for a merely external form of Christianity based upon custom. The world is entering upon a period of catastrophe and crisis, when we are being forced to take sides and in which a higher and more intense kind of spiritual life will be demanded of Christians.
This is a time that you will have to do something different. It will be fine. We are pushed into a different direction but the Lord is with us.
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
1 Corinthians 9:18
