Abraham Kuyper: “Modernism, which denies and abolishes every difference, cannot rest until it has made woman man and man woman, and, putting every distinction on a common level, kills life by placing it under the ban of uniformity.” — Lectures on Calvinism, p. 27

The seed of the serpent is still at work against the seed of the woman. And so, for those who are the Lord's, "radical determination must be insisted upon. Half-measures cannot guarantee the desired result. Superficiality will not brace us for the conflict.” —Abraham Kuyper

“…you should always maintain a certain modesty in speaking of the sacred. But to be silent where you must speak is not modesty, but finds its roots in a lack of courage in one’s faith and in the failure of one’s loyalty to Christ.” Kuyper, Pro Rege, 2.28

“When principles that run against your deepest convictions begin to win the day, then battle is your calling, and peace has become sin; you must, at the price of dearest peace, lay your convictions bare before friend and enemy, with all the fire of your faith.” -- Abraham Kuyper

"The greatest gift a church can receive is to have a group of families who take their responsibilities with such Christian seriousness that they are willing to completely alter their lifestyle to raise up disciples for Jesus Christ." Abraham Kuyper

Reminder: At one time, the entrance exam for Harvard required students to translate Latin passages from Virgil and Cicero as well as be able to read through Greek passages from the Bible and Xenophon. Oh yeah, and Cotton Mather passed that exam at age eleven.

Kuyper says that Calvinism's vision for art is one that it "...has sealed, not with the pencil or the chisel in the studio, but with its best blood at the stake and in the field of battle.” p 142, Stone Lectures

Kuyper says, “Genuflection before an almost fanatical worship of art, such as our time fosters, should little harmonize with the high seriousness of life, for which Calvinism has pleaded." p. 142, Stone Lectures

Kuyper predicts the current government controlled university system that is driving science will collapse. He rightly sees that “...the days of its artificial unity are numbered, that it will split up.” p 141, Stone Lectures

Instead, Christian scientists must be bold. We must steal the tactics and courage from the opposing naturalists and pursue true scientific investigation. (p 139) Christian scholars must stand up and defend the truth and defend true scientific freedom.

In Kuyper’s time and in our own time, we see this relentless attack on the Christian perspective, and we know that we will be slighted and oppressed on this front, but we must not yield to the tyrants who are trying to control the sanctuary of our hearts (p 138).
