Cornelius Plantinga Quotes

To be a responsible person is to find one’s role in the building of shalom, the re-webbing of God, humanity and all creation in justice, harmony, fulfillment and delight. To be a responsible person is to find one’s own role and then, funded by the grace of God, to fill this role and to delight in it Picture Quote #1

For the Christian church.... to ignore, euphemize, or otherwise mute the lethal reality of sin is to cut the nerve of the gospel. For the sober truth is that without full disclosure on sin, the gospel of grace becomes impertinent, unnecessary, and finally uninteresting Picture Quote #1

All sin is equally wrong, but not all sin is equally bad Picture Quote #1

Recalling and confessing our sin is like taking out the garbage: once is not enough Picture Quote #1

Patience is like good motor oil. It doesn’t remove all the contaminants. It just puts them into suspension so they don’t get into your works and seize them up. Patient people have, so to speak, a large crankcase. They can put a lot of irritants into suspension Picture Quote #1
