"Sweeping out of the inward positive reality, there is to be a positive manifestation externally. It is not just that we are dead to certain things, but we are to love God, we are to be alive to Him, we are to be in communion with Him, in this present moment of history. And we are to love men, to be alive to men as men, and to be in communication on a true personal level with men, in this present moment of history."
Francis Schaeffer was an American evangelical theologian, philosopher, and Presbyterian pastor. He founded the L'Abri community in Switzerland and wrote widely on Christianity and culture.
