God Quotes
-

Every time we mention God we become theologians, and the only question is whether we are going to be good ones or bad ones.
J. I. Packer

It is thy very energy of thoughtWhich keeps thee from thy God.
John Henry Newman

It is one thing, then, to say, 'The Bible contains the religion revealed by God,' and quite another to say, 'Whatever is contained in the Bible is religion, and was revealed by God.' If the latter be accepted, metaphor and allegory become literal statements and the errors and absurdities of bibliolatry follow.
Lionel Trilling

The young among us are, as a general thing, allied to the world. But few maintain a special warfare against the internal foe. But few have an earnest, anxious desire to know and do the will of God.
Ellen G. White
-
Alas for maiden, alas for Judge, For rich repiner and household drudge! God pity them both! and pity us all, Who vainly the dreams of youth recall; For of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
John Greenleaf Whittier

God would grant all of us wisdom, calm, and peace, that his presence would be in the operating room, and that his will might be done.
Ben Carson

I think science is about the search for God; it just comes at it from a different angle than religion.
Chris Carter

Even before I was me, I was God in God; And I can be once again, as soon as I am dead to myself
Angelus Silesius
-
I am too inquisitive, too skeptical, too arrogant, to let myself be satisfied with an obvious and crass solution of things. God is such an obvious and crass solution; a solution which is a sheer indelicacy to us thinkers - at bottom He is really nothing but a coarse commandment against us: ye shall not think!
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
To believe in love and to make it the embodiment and sum of our understanding of existence has far–reaching, indeed revolutionary consequences for our image of God, for our self–understanding and for our life praxis, for ecclesial praxis and for our conduct in the world. Love, which is proven in mercy, can and must become the foundation of a new culture for our lives, the church, and for society.
Walter Kasper
