“An imitation of a Frenchman would not make me a Frenchman. I am a German and I would have to be "reborn" to be anything but what I am. And so in the Christian life. I must be born anew. That is why Christ took me with Himself down into the grave and brought me forth a "new creation." He terminated my old life when there upon the Cross as Representative He died; and He imparted to me a new life when He arose from the grave.” ChristianChristBornCreationCrossesDiedGravesChristian LifeResurrectionRepresentativesImitationNew LifeRebornFrenchmenOld Life Author:F.

“What is the mark of a Christian? That he be purified of all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit in the Blood of Christ, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God and the love of Christ, and that he have no blemish nor spot nor any such thing; that he be holy and blameless and so eat the Body of Christ and drink His Blood; for 'he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgement to himself.'

“The great Christian art did not die because all possible forms had been used up; it died because faith was being transformed into piety. Now, the same conquest of the outside world that brought in our modern individualism, so different from that of the Renaissance, is by way of relativizing the individual. It is plain to see that man's faculty of transformation, which began by a remaking of the natural world, has ended by calling man himself into question.” MenWorldWayArtDifferentChristianFormUsedDiesIndividualNaturalModernCallingDiedTransformationFacultyIndividualismTransformedConquestNatural WorldPietyRenaissanceOutside WorldGreat ChristianChristian Art Author:Andre Malraux
