Men have looked upon the desert as barren land the free holding of whoever chose but in fact each hill and valley in it had a man who was its acknowledged owner and would quickly assert the right of his family or clan to it against aggression.

It's very strange that most people don't care if their knowledge of their family history only goes back three generations.

I believe that today's players who are Christians feel that it's important and their responsibility to acknowledge their faith.

The ultimate ground of faith and knowledge is confidence in God.

Hope is the belief we might get it done and faith is the knowledge we will get it done.

If then knowledge be power how much more power to we gain through the agency of faith and what elevation must it give to human character.

The realm of immediate or personal knowledge is a narrow circle in which these bodies move the realm of knowledge derived through faith is as wide as the universe and old as eternity.

Taking it in its wider and generic application I understand faith to be the supplement of sense or to change the phrase all knowledge which comes not to us through our senses we gain by faith in others.

Science we are repeatedly told is the most reliable form of knowledge about the world because it is based on testable hypotheses. Religion by contrast is based on faith. The term 'doubting Thomas' well illustrates the difference.

A quest for knowledge is not a war with faith spirituality is not usually an infelicitous amalgam of superstition and philistinism and moral relativism taken outside midfield leads inexorably both to heresy and to secular wickedness which are often identical.
