The gospel is not a truth among other truths. Rather, it sets a question mark against all truths.
Karl BarthThe relation of this God with this man; the relation of this man with this God--this is the only theme of the Bible and of philosophy.
Karl BarthWhat is offered to man's apprehension in any specific revelation of Christ is the living God himself.
Karl BarthSociety is now really ruled by its own logos; say rather by a whole pantheon of its own hypostases and powers... we are beginning to suspect that the idols are vain, but their demonic influence upon our lives is not thereby allayed. For it is one thing to entertain critical doubts regarding the god of this world, and another thing to perceive the dunamis, the meaning and might of the living God who is building a new world.
Karl Barth
