Death is hell and night and cold, if it is not transformed by our faith. But that is just what is so marvelous, that we can transform death.

A person who loves community tends to destroy it. But a person who loves people creates community wherever he goes.

God is not a God of the emotions but the God of truth.

God has willed that we should seek and find God's living Word in the testimony of other Christians, in the mouths of human beings.

Every sermon must contain a certain shot of heresy.

When one person is struck by the Word, he speaks it to others. God has willed that we should seek and find His living Word in the witness of a brother, in the mouth of man. Therefore, the Christian needs another Christian who speaks God’s Word to him. The Christ in his own heart is weaker than the Christ in the word of his brother; his own heart is uncertain, his brother’s is sure.

When people are deeply affected by the Word, they tell it to other people.
