 Christ is Sunlight, Christianity is MoonlightI've started reading The Reconstruction of the Church--On What Pattern by E. Stanley Jones (written in 1972). It was recommended by a friend and has been sitting on my shelf for a while, but now that I've picked it up I'm amazed at Stanley's insights so long ago. His words are both encouraging me and convicting me. I'll be posting some quotes from the introduction in the following days to peak your interest. Here's the first: "Christianity is moonlight, secondhand, built up through the centuries; Christ is sunlight, firsthand, not built up through the centuries, but revealed from eternity--the revelation of the meaning of God and man and life. Our fellowship must be around the firsthand, around the sun, if it is to be real. Our fellowship must be around Christ--the firsthand."
