Christians should never have a political party. It is a huge mistake to become married to an ideology, because the greatest enemy of the gospel is ideology. Ideology is a man-made format of how the world ought to work, and Christians instead believed in the revealing truth Scripture.Charles W. Colson

I know the resurrection is a fact, and Watergate proved it to me. How? Because 12 men testified they had seen Jesus raised from the dead, then they proclaimed that truth for 40 years, never once denying it. Every one was beaten, tortured, stoned and put in prison. They would not have endured that if it weren't true. Watergate embroiled 12 of the most powerful men in the world-and they couldn't keep a lie for three weeks. You're telling me 12 apostles could keep a lie for 40 years? Absolutely impossible.Charles W. Colson

Christians ought to have a different approach to business. As believers, we should view work as both service and a form of worship.Charles W. Colson

People who cannot restrain their own baser instincts, who cannot treat one another with civility, are not capable of self-government... without virtue, a society can be ruled only by fear, a truth that tyrants understand all too wellCharles W. Colson

Moral crusaders with zeal but no ethical understanding are likely to give us solutions that are worse than the problems.Charles W. Colson

Life is a mess. And theology must be lived out in the midst of that mess.Charles W. Colson
