The best theology would need no advocates; it would prove itself.
From Karl Barth
It is always the case that when the Christian looks back, he is looking at the forgiveness of sins.
No one can be saved - in virtue of what he can do. Everyone can be saved - in virtue of what God can do.
Man can certainly flee from God... but he cannot escape him. He can certainly hate God and be hateful to God, but he cannot change into its opposite the eternal love of God which triumphs even in his hate.
In the Church of Jesus Christ there can and should be no non-theologians.
Jesus does not give recipes that show the way to God as other teachers of religion do. He is himself the way.
Grace must find expression in life, otherwise it is not grace.
Joy is the simplest form of gratitude.
Whether the angels play only Bach praising God, I am not quite sure. I am sure, however, that en famille they play Mozart.
Religion is the possibility of the removal of every ground of confidence except confidence in God alone.
