Defending the Faith Discussion of Apologetical Issues with Unbelievers and Unorthodox groups
always ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope in you, with meekness and fear (1 Pe. 3:15)

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God.

Quotes from the Amsterdam Mafia

I am particularly indebted to Francis Nigel Lee's bold work, A Christian Introduction to the History of Philosophy.

I endeavor to cull the best quotes from the Amsterdam men: Kuyper, Vollenhoven, Dooyeweerd, Van Til, and Stoker.

Vollenhoven:

Quote:

If we concentrate all our strength against the enemy, on the antithesis, God will not withhold his blessing from us.

p. 203.

Dooyeweerd:

Quote:

Which of you can hesitate and tarry, when the King of our science summons you to the battlefield of the spirit...never forget--the demand of science comes to you not as a demand of human culture, but as a demand of Christ your King

p. 204

I have a bunch of cool Van Til quotes I will post later.
