Pentecostal Holiness Church

Famous quotes containing the words holiness and/or church:

    Say next to holiness is the will thereto,
    And next to love is the desire for love,
    The desire for its celestial ease in the heart,
    Which nothing can frustrate, that most secure,
    Unlike love in possession of that which was
    To be possessed and is.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Exporting Church employees to Latin America masks a universal and unconscious fear of a new Church. North and South American authorities, differently motivated but equally fearful, become accomplices in maintaining a clerical and irrelevant Church. Sacralizing employees and property, this Church becomes progressively more blind to the possibilities of sacralizing person and community.
    Ivan Illich (b. 1926)
