Pain (any pain--emotional, physical, mental) has a message. The information it has about our life can be remarkably specific, but it usually falls into one of two categories: We would be more alive if we did more of this and Life would be more lovely if we did less of that. Once we get the pain's message, and follow its advice, the pain goes away.

For want of a shoe the horse was lost. For want of a horse the rider was lost. For want of a rider the message was lost. For want of a message the battle was lost. For want of a battle the kingdom was lost. And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.

The fate of Susan Pevensie indicates some sort of crazed, deranged Manichaeism. Here's a simple test: What is the greatest Christian virtue? Well, it's charity, isn't it? It's love. If somebody who knew nothing about Christian doctrine, and who had been told that Lewis was a great Christian teacher, read all the way through those books, would he get that message? No.
~ Philip Pullman

Another steganographic system was still in use in the 20th century: Aeneas suggested pricking holes in a book or other document above or below the letters of the secret message. German spies used this very system in World War I, and used it with a slight modification in World War II—dotting the letters of newspapers with invisible ink.

They had built a friendship strong enough to withstand the disappearance of kisses.

It seems crazy to cut smoking mothers out of textbooks, but within a few years they won't be allowed in movies either. A woman can throw her newborn child from the roof of a high-rise building. She can then retrieve the body and stomp on it while shooting into the windows of a day-care center, but to celebrate these murders by lighting a cigarette is to send a harmful message. There are, after all, young people watching, and we wouldn't want them to get the wrong idea.
~ David Sedaris
When we tell people about salvation but say nothing about the Kingdom we are not preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.  If we present Christ without His Kingdom then we are sharing only half of the gospel.  Likewise if we present the Kingdom without Christ then again we are only sharing half of the gospel.  Jesus and His Kingdom are inseparable
~ Unknown
The irony is that although the kingdom of God was the theme of Jesus' preaching, the message of the kingdom is almost totally missing from the gospel that's preached today. What's the theme of most preaching today? It's man's personal salvation, isn't it? It's not the kingdom of God.

The irony is that although the Kingdom of God was the theme of Jesus' preaching, the message of the Kingdom is almost totally missing from the gospel that is preached today.  Let me ask you: what is the theme of most preaching today?  From the sermons I hear I would have to say the theme is man's personal salvation and that has probably been your experience as well. It's not the Kingdom of God.
~ Unknown
The message she'd just ordered Webster to send and Venizelos to relay to Manticore was never sent in drills, not even in the most intense or realistic Fleet maneuvers. Case Zulu had one meaning, and one only: Invasion Imminent.
