Two Great Quotes

1. In chapel service this morning President Avery quoted Spurgeon by saying:

"Nothing can enter heaven which is not real; nothing erroneous, mistaken, conceited, hollow, professional, pretentious, unsubstantial, can be smuggled through the gates. Only truth can dwell with the God of truth."

2. Then in class this morning, an "anonymous" student's paper was read by the professor and contained the following quote from Sir Winston Churchill:

To every man there comes in his lifetime that special moment when he is figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered a chance to do a very special thing, unique to him and fitted to his talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds him unprepared or unqualified for the work which would be his finest hour.”

Those are both certainly sobering truths!
