"Of all horrible religions the most horrible is the worship of the god within. Christianity came into the world firstly in order to assert with violence that a man had not only to look inwards, but to look outwards, to behold with astonishment and enthusiasm a divine company and a divine captain. The only fun of being a Christian was that a man was not left alone with the Inner Light, but definitely recognized an outer light, fair as the sun, clear as the moon, terrible as an army with banners."
-G.K. Chesterton quoted in Michael Horton,
The Gospel Commission (2011), p 265-6
