3 Buckle your seatbelt Dorothy, because Kansas
is going bye-bye. Cypher, The Matrix
4 Believe me when I say we have a difficult time
ahead of us. But if we are to be prepared for it,
we must first shed our fear of it. Morpheus,
The Matrix Reloaded
5When we walk to the edge of all the light we have
and take the step into the darkness of the
unknown, we must believe that one of two things
will happen. There will be something solid for us
to stand on or we will be taught to fly.
Patrick Overton
6 I just wish... I wish I knew what I'm supposed
to do, that's all... I just wish I knew.
Neo, The Matrix Reloaded
7 For a man to achieve all that is demanded of him
he must regard himself as greater than he is.
Goethe
8 We are more than conquerors through him who
loved us. The Apostle Paul (Romans 837)
9One of the banes of present-day evangelical
Christianity is the way we sit every week under
the teaching of Gods Word, or even have private
devotions and perhaps participate in a Bible
study group, without a serious intent to obey the
truth we learn. Jerry Bridges
10It is strange that sometimes the church is
written off by those who know little or nothing
about it. They are not involved in its process
or mission. In no other field would we take the
word of a bystander as a word of authority and
appraisal. C. Neil Strait
11 What are you waiting for? Youre faster than
this. Dont think you are know you are.
Morpheus
12Let everyone, therefore, who knows himself to be
a Christian be assured of this, and apply it to
himself - that we are all priests, and there is
no difference between us. Martin Luther
13 We know what we are, but know not what we may
be. Shakespeare, Hamlet.
14 Sooner or later youre going to realize, just as
I did, that theres a difference between knowing
the path, and walking the path. Morpheus
15 To believe in God is to yearn for his existence
and, moreover, it is to behave as if he did
exist. Miguel de Unamuno
16 I am learning that the best cure for hypocrisy
is community. Henri Nouwen
17 If one fails, all fail. The Keymaker, The
Matrix Reloaded
18Sooner or later something seems to call us onto a
particular path....This is what I must do, this
is what I've got to have. This is who I am.
James Hillman
19 The Matrix is the world that has been pulled
over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
Morpheus
20 The god who rules this world has blinded the
minds of unbelievers. They cannot see the light,

(CEV)

22I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the
power of God for the salvation of everyone who
believes first for the Jew, then for the
Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from
God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith
from first to last, just as it is written "The
righteous will live by faith." Romans 116-17

of you is part of his body. 1 Corinthians

31 Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. 1
Corinthians 81 (NRSV)
32They come to you as people come, and they sit
before you as my people, and they hear your
words, but they will not obey them. For flattery
is on their lips, but their heart is set on their
gain. To them you are like a singer of love
songs, one who has a beautiful voice and plays
well on an instrument they hear what you say,
but they will not do it. Ezekiel 3331-32
(NRSV)
33 Do not deceive yourselves by just listening to
