The full quote is much better than the soundbite:
"When I am awake I can, in some degree, account for and study my dream. The dragon that pursued me last night can be fitted into my waking world. I know that there are such things as dreams; I know that I had eaten an indigestible dinner; I know that a man of my reading might be expected to dream of dragons. But while in the nightmare I could not have fitted in my waking experience. The waking world is judged more real because it can thus contain the dreaming world; the dreaming world is judged less real because it cannot contain the waking one. For the same reason I am certain that in passing from the scientific points of view to the theological, I have passed from dream to waking. Christian theology can fit in science, art, morality, and the sub-Christian religions. The scientific point of view cannot fit in any of these things, not even science itself. I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen, not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else." -C.S. Lewis, 'Is Theology Poetry'.

I like his "Trilemna quote"

Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher.

Both Lewis and Tolkien were such gifts to
this world shining bright the light of Christ.

C S Lewis wrote so many deep, profound words, it really annoys me when I mention him to my secular colleagues and they patronisingly say,
'Oh, the Children's author?'

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the "Son has risen:" Not only because I've seen Him, but because the Spirit testifies of this.

[NovusIgnis]

Lewis truly had an amazing mind, and I'm ashamed that I don't give him as much thought as I should.

[Xtven]

I believe that there is a God just like I Believe in gravity.

Not only because there is an explanation to it, but I actually experience it

I believe Christianity just as the sun has risen. I believe it, because the Son has risen ✝️

I can see God is real as clear as those glasses frames

I'm sure this makes blind people feel upset. Perhaps u don't need to see it but just feel it.
