Let it be understood that those who are not found living as He taught are not Christian- even though they profess with the lips the teaching of Christ.

Not as common bread or as common drink do we receive these.....We have been taught that the food that has been Eucharistized by the word of prayer, that food which by assimilation nourishes our flesh and blood, is the flesh and blood of the incarnate Jesus.

In that we say he [Christ] made whole the lame, the paralytic, and those born blind, we seem to say what is very similar to the deeds said to have been done by Esculapius.

No one who is rightly minded turns from true belief to false.

Sound doctrine does not enter into the hard and disobedient heart; but, as if beaten back, enters anew into itself.

The world suffers nothing from Christians but hates them because they reject its pleasures.

We expect to receive again our own bodies, though they be dead and cast into the earth, for we maintain that with God nothing is impossible.
