“Whenever the Christian faith is accepted and established in a nation, and a large number of people are members of various churches, one of the first and deadliest temptations is the lust for respectability — a lust which is defined and established by complacent worldly values, and not by the Scriptures. Soon the pulpits of the land are filled with a bunch of contented moo cows, and everything settles down into what theologians call bovine ecclesiology. In such a setting, because cows cannot run very fast, it does not take much to pull the tail of the establishment, and God has frequently appointed holy men to this honored and sacred task” (A Serrated Edge, pp. 81-82).
