“Mr. and Mrs. ____________ have a nice home, and belongings, and two cute kiddies, but are so like the rest of us that it is disheartening.  We are so utterly ordinary, so common-place.  We profess to know a Power the twentieth century does not reckon with, but we are harmless and therefore unharmed.  We are spiritual pacifists, non-militants, conscientious objectors in this battle to the death with the principalities and powers in high places.  Meekness must be had for contact with men, but brash, outspoken boldness is required to take part in the comradeship of the cross.  We are sideliners, coaching and criticizing the real wrestlers, while content to sit by and leave the enemies of God unchallenged.  The world can not hate us; we are too much like its own.  Oh, that God would make us dangerous!” — Jim Elliot
