"Platon a sesizat aici, sub forma unui mit ontologic, faptul ca orice iubire este o aluzie la eternitate sau, altfel spus, portia la îndemâna a muritorilor la nemurire. Timpul obisnuit si comun este abolit de continuitatea unui extaz. Ce sublim pare totul! Dar sa ne ocupam acum putin de extaz. Dupa cum numele o spune, extazul nu-i altceva decât o iesire din tine, o instalare în afara ta: ek-stasis."

"Fiecare om isi alcatuieste de-a lungul vietii un edificiu afectiv. Masura in care el este e data de consistenta acestui edificiu, de mana aceea de oameni, ei nu pot fi multi, pe care i-a preluat in el si i-a iubit fara rest, fara umbra, si impotriva carora spiritul lui critic, chiar daca a fost prezent, a ramas neputincios. Acesti oameni putini, care ne fac pe fiecare in parte sa nu regretam ca suntem, reprezinta, chit ca o stim sau nu, stratul de protectie care ne ajuta sa trecem prin viata." (Gabriel Liiceanu)

What sets the historic Christian faith apart from all other religions and worldviews? Nothing less than the good news of God’s saving grace in Jesus Christ. The Protestant Reformers boldly declared the marvelous message of the gospel: Salvation is by God’s grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, as revealed in Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone. Together, these “alone” statements are called the five solas of the Reformation. In this book, Dr. Gabe Fluhrer explains how the five solas give us the heartbeat of the gospel and the road map for the Christian life.
