"Once you have made the Word an end, and faith a means…it makes very little difference what kind of worldly end he is pursuing. Provided that meetings, pamphlets, policies, movements, causes and crusades, matter more to him than prayers and sacraments and charity, he is ours—and…
“There is nothing like suspense and anxiety for barricading a human’s mind against the Enemy. He wants men to be concerned with what they do; our business is to keep them thinking about what will happen to them." - The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis ©1942 CS Lewis Pte Ltd.
