- Neither is logic.
- All truth is God’s truth.
- Not everything that happens has someone to blame.
- I don’t have to have an opinion on every issue.
- I don’t have to take a side in every conflict.
- The law of the harvest: We reap what we sow, more than we sow, later than we sow. (Charles Stanley).
- There are usually more ways than one to accomplish a task. The traditional way, or the “way we’ve always done it” may not be the best or most efficient – but not simply because it’s traditional.
- The comfortable or convenient explanation is not always the best explanation.
- Clever words do not in themselves form truth.
