A.W. Tozer once wrote, "We Christians must look sharp that our Christianity does not simply refine our sins without removing them.  The big danger is that we assume that we have been delivered from our sins when we have, in reality, only exchanged one kind of sin for another,  Popular Christianity suggests that the church should only put forth the favorable parts, and forget altogether the necessity of warning people about the false."  The beach or the mountains; both are needed!
