Death reveals that the world is not as it should be but that it stands in need of redemption. Christ alone is the conquering of death.

Christianity without discipleship is always Christianity without Christ.

Because I am a Christian, therefore, every day in which I do not penetrate more deeply into the knowledge of God's Word in Holy Scripture is a lost day for me. I can only move forward with certainty upon the firm ground of the Word of God. And, as a Christian, I learn to know the Holy Scriptures in no other way than by hearing the Word preached and by prayerful meditation.

The church ... is not just to bandage the victims under the wheel, but to put a spoke in the wheel itself.

Only the suffering God can help.

Time is the most precious gift in our possession, for it is the most irrevocable. This is what makes it so disturbing to look back upon the time which we have lost. Time lost is time when we have not lived a full human life, time unenriched by experience, creative endeavor, enjoyment, and suffering. Time lost is time not filled, time left empty.

Your life as a Christian should make non believers question their disbelief in God.
