DOUBT

'Doubt is a state of mind in suspension between faith and unbelief so that it is neither of them wholly and it is each of them only partly. This distinction is absolutely vital because it uncovers and deals with the first major misconception of doubt - the idea that we should be ashamed of doubting because doubting is a betrayal of faith and a surrender to unbelief. No misunderstanding causes more anxiety and brings such bondage to sensitive people in doubt.'
Os Guiness, God in the Dark, p.26.
