Quotes by Ivor J. Davidson  (?)

“People are children of God solely by faith, and they prove that they have this status not by becoming subject to the rituals and requirements of the Law but by living as those who have been liberated by Christ.”
Ivor J. Davidson, The Birth of the Church: From Jesus to Constantine, AD 30-312

“[Jesus] had taught that righteousness consisted not in outward conformity to moral conventions but in the attitude of the heart, and had summoned his hearers to a lift of commitment to the truth and justice that God's Law in its seenece demanded.”
Ivor J. Davidson, The Birth of the Church: From Jesus to Constantine, AD 30-312

“The Christian life begins with faith, which is a basic apprehension of the elementary truths about God, but this faith is expressed in a rational manner in the daily discipleship of walking with God. On this journey, ethical endeavour is motivated not by fear of punishment or hope of reward but by a love of the knowledge of God for its own sake.”
Ivor J. Davidson, The Birth of the Church: From Jesus to Constantine, AD 30-312
