Life itself Quote by John F. Baggett
““Reality does not force itself on anyone...But just because the Word as reality does not force itself on the world does not mean that the choice one makes in relation to this reality is without consequence...John declares that Jesus, as the revelation of reality, is not one reality among others, but Reality itself. To miss living in this Reality is to miss life itself.””
