Cheap grace is grace without discipleship.

Man has learned to cope with all questions of importance without recourse to God as a working hypothesis.

When all is said and done, the life of faith is nothing if not an unending struggle of the spirit with every available weapon against the flesh.

There is not a place to which the Christian can withdraw from the world, whether it be outwardly or in the sphere of the inner life. Any attempt to escape from the world must sooner or later be paid for with a sinful surrender to the world.

Being free means "being free for the other," because the other has bound me to him. Only in relationship with the other am I free

The proclamation of grace has its limits. Grace may not be proclaimed to anyone who does not recognize or distinguish or desire it... The world upon whom grace is thrust as a bargain will grow tired of it, and it will not only trample upon the Holy, but also will tear apart those who force it on them.

God does not love some ideal person, but rather human beings just as we are, not some ideal world, but rather the real world.
