Theology

“It is not enough to hear a sermon, but you must eat it down, take in what it commands, and then it will purge your heart...Take the word and digest it, squeeze the juice of it into thy heart, and it will purge thee from all contrary corruption.”
― Thomas Goodwin, Modern King James Version of the Holy Bible

“If we displease God, does it matter whom we please? If we please Him does it matter whom we displease?”
― Leonard Ravenhill, Why Revival Tarries: A Classic on Revival

“Every sin is an act of cosmic treason, a futile attempt to dethrone God in His sovereign authority.”
― R.C. Sproul, The Holiness of God

“Everything hinges on the Christ of the cross. The fact of the cross is the axiom of theological thought. It is impossible to think about the gospel if we have the slightest hesitation on this point. We must determine to carry this theme throughout all the problems of theology without exception... The essence of God can be comprehended only from the 'word of the cross.”
― Kazoh Kitamori, Theology of the Pain of God: The First Original Theology From Japan
