Cornelius Plantinga Jr.
“God hates sin not just because it violates his law but, more substantively, because it violates shalom, because it breaks the peace, because it interferes with the way things are supposed to be.”
Cornelius Plantinga Jr., Not the Way It's Supposed to Be: A Breviary of Sin

“The idea of salvation cannot be reduced to a personal relationship with Jesus. God's plan is much more encompassing. God intends for salvation to be a community-creating event.”
Joseph H. Hellerman, When the Church Was a Family: Recapturing Jesus' Vision for Authentic Christian Community

Jonathan R. Wilson
“We typically admire the intellectual abilities and accomplishments of those who understand the intricacies of physics. Physics, however, is only the study of the world that God has created. Theology is the study of God, who is creator and redeemer. Therefore, even with the revelation of God in Scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we should not be surprised that the work of theology calls for the very best that we have to give. And we should be thankful for the theologians we study, who have gone before us to understand the God in whom we believe.”
Jonathan R. Wilson, A Primer for Christian Doctrine

“Neither Paul nor Jesus can be cited in support of a life-priority list that generates a false dichotomy between commitment to God and commitment to His group in order to stick natural family relations somewhere in between: (1st) God — (2nd) Family — (3rd) Church — (4th) Others For both Jesus and Paul, commitment to God was commitment to God's group. Such an outlook generates a rather different list of priorities, one that more accurately reflects the strong-group perspective of the early Christians: (1st) God's Family — (2nd) My Family — (3rd) Others”
Joseph H. Hellerman, When the Church Was a Family: Recapturing Jesus' Vision for Authentic Christian Community

“For Christians, this renewing orientation is particularly important, since severe social oppression and injustice can easily seduce them into identifying the whole social order ("the Establishment," the "status quo," or "the system") with the "world" in its religiously negative sense. When this fatal identification is made, Christians tend to withdraw from all participation in societal renewal.
Under the guise of keeping itself from the "world," the body of Christ then in effect allows the powers of secularization and distortion to dominate the greater part of its life. This is not so much an avoidance of evil as a neglect of duty.”
Albert M. Wolters, Creation Regained: Biblical Basics for a Reformational Worldview
