Christian Doctrine Quotes

• The foundation of true holiness and true Christian worship is the doctrine of the gospel, what we are to believe. So when Christian doctrine is neglected, forsaken, or corrupted, true holiness and worship will also be neglected, forsaken, and corrupted.

  John Owen

• Las "doctrinas" cristianas son traducciones a nuestros conceptos e ideas de lo que Dios ya ha expresado en un lenguaje más adecuado, a saber, la encarnación, crucifixión y resurrección reales...

• La teología es como un mapa. Limitarse a aprender y pensar sobre las doctrinas cristianas, si uno se detiene ahí, es menos real y menos emocionante que el tipo de cosas que mi amigo consiguió en el desierto. Las doctrinas no son Dios: son sólo una especie de mapa. Pero ese mapa se basa en la experiencia de cientos de personas que realmente estuvieron en contacto con Dios -experiencias comparadas con las cuales muchas emociones de sentimientos piadosos que usted y yo probablemente obtengamos por nuestra cuenta son muy elementales y muy confusas. Y en segundo lugar, si quieres llegar más lejos debes usar el mapa.

• De hecho, no puedo entender cómo alguien puede desear que el cristianismo sea verdad, porque si es así, el lenguaje llano del texto parece mostrar que los hombres que no creen, y esto incluiría a mi padre, a mi hermano y a casi todos mis amigos, serán castigados eternamente. Y esta es una doctrina condenable.

• This historic Christian doctrine of the divinity of Christ does not simply mean that Jesus is like God.
  It is far more radical than that. It means that God is like Jesus.

• Nunca me he unido a ninguna iglesia porque me resultaba difícil dar mi asentimiento sin reservas mentales a las largas y complicadas declaraciones de la doctrina cristiana que caracterizan los artículos de creencia y la confesión de fe habitual.

• In restating this basic Christian doctrine, Benedict argues that it is not only for Christians alone. Others may not share the Christian faith in God, but the Christian proclamation that hope comes from within the person- in the realm of faith and conscience - is for them too. It offers an important protection against stifling and occasionally brutal social systems built on false hopes that come from outside the person, founded on political idealogies, economic models and social theories.

• [On dishonest business methods:] ... frequently the defender of the practice falls back on the Christian doctrine of charity, and points out that we are erring mortals and must allow for each other's weaknesses! - an excuse which, if carried to its legitimate conclusion, would leave our business men weeping on one another's shoulders over human frailty, while they picked one another's pockets.

  Ida Tarbell

• Creflo Dollar is compromising, confusing or outright contradicting essential Christian doctrine. Joel Osteen does exactly the same thing. Now, not necessarily the exact same doctrines, but he is compromising, confusing or contradicting essential Christian doctrine. Their view of faith is a force, words are the containers of the force, and through the force of faith, one can create his or her own reality. That's not biblical faith. That's a false faith, or faith that doesn't satisfy and ultimately will lead people into harm's way.

• If it hasn't already done so, the church... must recognize that it lives in a pagan society; it must seek for values and norms not shared by society. In short, it will either recover the Christian doctrine of nonconformity or cease to have any authentic Christian voice.

  Doris Janzen Longacre

• Now, if the book of Genesis is an allegory, then sin is an allegory, the Fall is an allegory and the need for a Savior is an allegory - but if we are all descendants of an allegory, where does that leave us? It destroys the foundation of all Christian doctrine-it destroys the foundation of the gospel.

  Ken Ham

• At one level Great Britain at the beginning of the 18th century was like the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, both three and one, and altogether something of a mystery.

• Why did the consensus of Christian churches not only accept these astonishing views but establish them as the only true form of Christian doctrine? . . . these religious debates - questions of the nature of God, or of Christ - simultaneously bear social and political implications that are crucial to the development of Christianity as an institutional religion. In simplest terms, ideas which bear implications contrary to that development come to be labeled as 'heresy'; ideas which implicitly support it become 'orthodox.'

  Elaine Pagels

• When a man who accepts the Christian doctrine lives unworthily of it, it is much clearer to say he is a bad Christian than to say he is not a Christian.

• I realized that my truest passion was for helping people change through faith in a higher power. That meant, for me, belonging to the church. Using my abilities to bring Christian doctrine to a postmodern world.

• Un área del Libro de Mormón que molesta a algunos es lo que ven como doctrina anacrónica; que el Libro de Mormón tiene doctrina cristiana antes de la venida de Cristo; que tiene doctrinas aparentemente del Nuevo Testamento que aparecen siglos antes de la llegada de Jesús, y parece estar representando una forma de cristianismo existente en el Nuevo Mundo donde no parece haber mucha evidencia de eso arqueológicamente. El cristianismo es invisible en el Nuevo Mundo antes de la llegada de Colón, por lo que esas cosas parecen claros anacronismos para la gente que lo mira de esa manera.

  Daniel C. Peterson

• It is a thoroughly anti-Christian doctrine that the Spirit of God, and therefore the life and governing power of the Church, resides in the ministry, to the exclusion of the people.

• Porque un Hombre no puede creer en un Milagro sin confiar en el Sentido, ni en la Transubstanciación sin renunciar a ella. De modo que nunca estuvieron dos cosas tan mal unidas como la Doctrina del Cristianismo y la de la Transubstanciación, porque se trazan varios caminos, y están listas para estrangularse mutuamente: Porque la principal Evidencia de la Doctrina Cristiana, que son los Milagros, se resuelve en la certeza del Sentido, pero esta Evidencia es clara y a quemarropa contra la Transubstanciación.

• The Reverend Douglas Wilson may not be a professional historian, as his detractors say, but he has a strong grasp of the essentials of the history of slavery and its relation to Christian doctrine. Indeed, sad to say, his grasp is a great deal stronger than that of most professors of American history, whose distortions and trivializations disgrace our college classrooms. And the Reverend Mr. Wilson is a fighter, especially effective in defense of Christianity against those who try to turn Jesus' way of salvation into pseudo-moralistic drivel.

• I think that we're guided by the motto in "essentials unity, non essentials liberty and in all things charity." So if pastors compromise essential Christian doctrine, I think that there is a biblical warrant for naming them.
