QUOTE (Francis Schaeffer) – Jan 30

January 30, 2014

Francis Schaeffer

“The reality of living by faith as though we were already dead, of living by faith in open communion with God, and then stepped back into the external world as though we are already raised from the dead, this is not once for all, it is a matter of moment-by-moment faith, and living moment by moment. This morning’s faith will never do for this noon. The faith of this noon will never do for supper time. The faith of supper time will never do for the next morning. Thank God for the reality for which we were created, a moment-by-moment communication with God himself.”
~ Francis August Schaeffer

In honor of Francis Schaeffer, American Evangelical Christian theologian, philosopher, and Presbyterian pastor, who was born on this day in 1912

  3. I love Schaeffer! My wife all his work! I appreciate his insight.


  4. Somewhere else Schaeffer said that the reality of our death in Christ is as real as his death on the cross – fixed in time and space just as his death was.
