Billy GrahamChristianity is not an accretion, it is not something added. It is a new total outlook which is satisfied with nothing less than penetration to the furthest corners of the mind and the understanding.
About This Quote
The Christian faith does not merely provide us with the facts surrounding the life, death and resurrection of Christ. It does not merely tell us facts about people who lived in an earlier time. Christianity goes beyond the facts to explain the whys. The Christian faith is not merely an accretion but a total outlook which is satisfied with nothing less than penetration to the furthest corners of our mind and understanding.
