“Of course, nobody would deny the importance of human beings for theological thinking, but the time span of history that theologians think about is a few thousand years of human culture rather than the fifteen billion years of the history of the universe.” ThinkingYearsHumansCultureUniverseCoursesHuman BeingsThousandImportanceDenyBillionsFifteenThousand YearsTheologianTheologicalLogical Thinking Author:John Polkinghorne
“Justification by grace through faith' is the theologian's learned phrase for what Chesterton once called 'the furious love of G-d.' He is not moody or capricious; He knows no seasons of change. He has a single relentless stance toward us: He loves us. He is the only G-d man has ever heard of who loves sinners. False gods- the gods of human manufacturing- despise sinners, but the Father of (Yeshua) loves all, no matter what they do.” KnowsMenHumansMatterFatherGraceHeardSeasonsNo Matter WhatPhrasesSinnerDespiseJustificationTheologianRelentlessManufacturingFuriousStanceMoodyCapriciousFalse Gods Author:Brennan Manning
“Theologians and philosophers, who make God the creator of Nature and the architect of the Universe, reveal Him to us as an illogical and unbalanced Being. They declare He is benevolent because they are afraid of Him, but they are forced to admit the truth that His ways are vicious and beyond understanding. They attribute a malignity to Him seldom to be found in any human being. And that is how they get human beings to worship Him. For our miserable species would never lavish worship on a just and benevolent God from whom they had nothing to fear.” WayHumansUniverseFoundUnderstandingHuman BeingsWorshipSpeciesPhilosopherCreatorMiserableAttributesArchitectViciousTheologianBenevolentIllogicalUnbalanced Author:Anatole France
