Redemption Quotes
-
In salvation we are not only saved from sin and damnation; we are saved unto holiness. The goal of redemption is holiness.
R. C. Sproul
-
The Christian notion of the possibility of redemption is incomprehensible to the computer.
Vance Packard
-
And now without redemption all mankind Must have been lost, adjudged to death and hell By doom severe.
John Milton
-
If tribulation is a necessary element in redemption, we must anticipate that it will never cease till God sees the world to be either redeemed or no further redeemable.
C. S. Lewis
-
Christ, in short, asks us to give everything, all our false redemption in the lifeboat, all our false ideas about who God is, all our trust in something other than God to redeem us. In so doing, we die to our broken natures in exchange for His perfect nature, and find unification with Him that will allow God to see us as one.
Donald Miller
-
In a sense, we are better prepared to praise God than the angels are, for angels have never known the joy of redemption.
David Jeremiah
-
In all God's plans for human redemption, He proposes that men pray. The men are to pray in every place, in the church, in the closet, in the home, on sacred days and on secular days.
Edward McKendree Bounds
-
All that Christ did and suffered would have been necessary had only one human soul been the object of redemption; and nothing different and nothing more would have been required had every child of Adam been saved through his blood.
Charles Hodge
-
The possible redemption from the predicament of irreversibility──of being unable to undo what one has done──is the faculty of forgiving. The remedy for unpredictability, for the chaotic uncertainty of the future, is contained in the faculty to make and keep promises. Both faculties depend upon plurality, on the presence and acting of others, for no man can forgive himself and no one can be bound by a promise made only to himself.
Hannah Arendt
-
In this respect, to convert is to locate oneself in a particular temporality and duration. This duration is that of the inexhaustible future constituted by the infinite, the time of eternity, the time that inaugurates divine existence and its extension in the redemption of the body; thus its final point of completion—if there is one—is the parousia.
Achille Mbembe
