Salvation Quotes
-
The human race was in need of salvation because of the perversity of sin. For when people who are ill are cured from their illness, they are called "saved." Therefore, the Lord says: "Your faith has saved you.
Thomas Aquinas
-
Creating-that is the great salvation from suffering.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
The inner change, justification, is effected at the moment of salvation. The outer change in the believer's daily walk, sanctification, continues throughout life. But the progressive work of sanctification is only fully effective when the radical, inner transformation of justification is realized and appropriated by faith.
Neil T Anderson
-
In questions of this sort there are two things to be observed. First, that the truth of the Scriptures be inviolably maintained. Secondly, since Scripture doth admit of diverse interpretations, that no one cling to any particular exposition with such pertinacity that, if what he supposed to be the teaching of Scripture should afterward turn out to be clearly false, he should nevertheless still presume to put it forward, lest thereby the sacred Scriptures should be exposed to the derision of unbelievers and the way of salvation should be closed to them.
Thomas Aquinas
-
The life of the individual believer, his personal salvation, and personal Christian graces have their being, bloom and fruitage in prayer.
Edward McKendree Bounds
-
If you are under the dominion of sin, you are yet an utter stranger to the salvation of God.
Catherine Booth
-
Salvation is a curious process of divine burglary. The first thing to be wrested from one by a God who said 'Thou shalt not steal' is one's good opinion of one's self.
Elizabeth Goudge
-
The media is either our salvation or our death.
David Bowie
-
Unfortunately, during the course of 2,000 years of Christian history, this symbol of salvation has been detached from any reference to the ongoing suffering and oppression of human beings—those whom Ignacio Ellacuría, the Salvadoran martyr, called “the crucified peoples of history.” The cross has been transformed into a harmless, non-offensive ornament that Christians wear around their necks. Rather than reminding us of the “cost of discipleship,” it has become a form of “cheap grace,”[3] an easy way to salvation that doesn’t force us to confront the power of Christ’s message and mission. Until we can see the cross and the lynching tree together, until we can identify Christ with a “recrucified” black body hanging from a lynching tree, there can be no genuine understanding of Christian identity in America, and no deliverance from the brutal legacy of slavery and white supremacy.
James Hal Cone
-
Welcome to the Salvation Army. I've never been associated with an offense so nice about giving the ball away.
Hayden Fry
-
Salvation cannot come without revelation. Men of the present time testify of heaven and hell, and have never seen either; and I will say that no man knows these things without this.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
-
We should let our godliness exhale like th odor of flowers. We should live for the good of our kind, and strive for the salvation of the world.
Alexander Crummell
-
Grace is necessary to salvation, free will equally so - but grace in order to give salvation, free will in order to receive it.
Bernard of Clairvaux
-
And this is the mission of the church — not civilization, but salvation — not better laws, purer legislation, social elevation, human equality, and liberty, but FIRST, the " kingdom of God and His righteousness;" regenerated hearts, and all other things will follow.
Abbott Eliot Kittredge
-
Every crisis has both its dangers and its opportunities. Each can spell either salvation or doom.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
Love of Mary and devotion to her are a sure sign of obtaining eternal salvation.
Bernard of Clairvaux
-
We could not take one step in the pursuit of holiness if God in His grace had not first delivered us from the dominion of sin and brought us into union with His risen Son. Salvation is by grace and sanctification is by grace.
Jerry Bridges
-
To serve Mary is a mark of eternal salvation to come.
Bernard of Clairvaux
-
It is essentially wholesome and necessary, for a Christian to know, whether or not the will does any thing in those things which pertain unto Salvation. Nay, let me tell you, this is the very hinge upon which our discussion turns. It is the very heart of the subject.
Martin Luther
-
To be united to God in unity of person was not fitting to human flesh, according to its natural endowments, since it was above his dignity; nevertheless, it was fitting that God, by reason of his infinite goodness, should unite it to himself for human salvation.
Thomas Aquinas
-
For their salvation is necessary and essential to our salvation, … they without us cannot be made perfect—neither can we without our dead be made perfect.
Russell M. Nelson
-
Acquire inner peace and a multitude will find their salvation near you.
Catherine Doherty
