“Mungu si wa kudhihakiwa (Wagalatia 6:7)! Katika maneno kadhaa ya Biblia, anasema bila masihara kabisa kwamba yeye ni Mungu mwenye wivu (Kutoka 34:14; Kumbukumbu la Torati 6:4-15) – Yeye si wa kuabudiwa kama mungu mwingine yeyote yule (Kumbukumbu la Torati 12:3-4, 30-31). Alipowaagiza watu wake wateule Israeli kwa njia ya ibada yake, aliwaonya wasiongeze juu ya kile alichokuwa amewapa wala wasipunguze chochote (Kumbukumbu la Torati 4:2; 12:32; angalia pia Ufunuo 22:18-19). Kwa mfano, angalia hasira yake kuu wakati wana wa Israeli walipojaribu kumwabudu kupitia Ndama wa Dhahabu (Kutoka 32:1-9). Walitangaza kuwa ilikuwa sikukuu ya Bwana (mstali wa 5), lakini Mungu hakulithamini hilo! Alikuwa na hasira kali juu ya ibada ya sanamu za watu, kiasi kwamba alifikiria kuangamiza taifa zima na kuanza upya na familia ya Musa. Mungu huyohuyo – Yahweh, Bwana wa Agano la Kale – akawa Yesu Kristo! Je, Mwokozi wetu atakubali kuabudiwa kwa namna yoyote ambayo misingi yake imejikita kwenye uongo? Hapana! Na hili kwa vyovyote vile limezingatia mila na desturi zisizo za kibiblia (labda tunaweza kusema za “kipagani”) ambazo zimechukua nafasi ya maadhimisho ya kafara na ushindi wa kishindo wa Yesu Kristo.”

“The warrior of light has learned that God uses solitude to teach us how to live with other people. He uses rage to show us the infinite value of peace. He uses boredom to underline the importance of adventure and spontaneity. God uses silence to teach us to use words responsibly. He uses tiredness so that we can understand the value of waking up. He uses illness to underline the blessing of good health. God uses fire to teach us about water. He uses earth so that we can understand the value of air. He uses death to show us the importance of life”

“And we, too, being called by His will to Christ Jesus, are not justified by ourselves, nor by our own wisdom, or understanding or godliness, or works which we have wrought in holiness of heart; but by that faith through which, from the beginning, Almighty God has justified all men; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”

“Whatever marvel happens in this world, it is certainly less marvellous than this whole world itself — I mean the sky and earth, and all that is in them — and these God certainly made. But, as the Creator Himself is hidden and incomprehensible to man, so also is the manner of creation. Although, therefore, the standing miracle of this visible world is little thought of, because always before us, yet, when we arouse ourselves to contemplate it, it is a greater miracle than the rarest and most unheard-of marvels.”
