The Supremacy of Christ in a Postmodern World - Bilingual quotes that celebrate the beauty of language, showcasing meaningful expressions in two unique perspectives.

"The Supremacy of Christ in a Postmodern World" explores the relevance and authority of Christ's teachings in today's diverse cultural landscape. The book addresses the challenges posed by postmodernism, which often questions absolute truths and traditional beliefs. It emphasizes the need for Christians to affirm their faith in Jesus as the ultimate source of truth and hope amidst the relativism that characterizes contemporary society.

The authors argue that postmodern thought can lead to a disconnection from coherent worldviews. They propose that by focusing on the supremacy of Christ, believers can engage meaningfully with those around them while maintaining their core principles. The text stresses the importance of understanding Christ's role not just as a historical figure but as the central figure in the Christian faith, who provides a solid foundation for life and meaning.

Ultimately, the book calls for a robust understanding of Christ’s supremacy to empower Christians to be effective witnesses in a postmodern context. By rooting their identity and mission in Christ, believers are encouraged to navigate the complexities of modern life with confidence, offering a compelling alternative to the uncertainty that pervades postmodern philosophy.

Taffy. He thinks about taffy. He thinks it would take his teeth out now, but he would eat it anyhow, if it meant eating it with her.

All our human endeavours are like that, she reflected, and it is only because we are too ignorant to realize it, or are too forgetful to remember it, that we have the confidence to build something that is meant to last.

The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.}

Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

Small towns are like metronomes; with the slightest flick, the beat changes.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
by Mitch Albom
we get so many lives between birth and death. A life to be a child. A life to come of age. A life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to test our promise, to realize our mortality-and, in some lucky cases, to do something after that realization.

But an ink brush, she thinks, is a skeleton key for a prisoner's mind.
