Prayer Without Study Would Be Empty. Study

Where Dogmatics Exists At All, It Exists Only With The Will To Be A Church Dogmatics, A Dogmatics Of The Ecumenical Church.

Christian Worship Is The Most Momentous, Most Urgent, Most Glorious Action That Can Take Place In Human Life.

A Free Theologian Works In Communication With Other Theologians...he Waits For Them And Asks Them To Wait For Him. Our Sadly Lacking Yet Indispensable Theological Co-operation Depends Directly Or Indirectly On Whether Or Not We Are Wiling To Wait For One Another, Perhaps Lamenting, Yet Smiling With Tears In Our Eyes.

The Theologian Who Labours Without Joy Is Not A Theologian At All.

The Angels Laugh At Old Karl. They Laugh At Him Because He Tries To Grasp The Truth About God In A Book Of Dogmatics. They Laugh At The Fact That Volume Follows Volume, And Each Is Thicker Than The Previous Ones. As They Laugh, They Say To One Another, ‘look! Here He Comes Now With His Little Pushcart Full Of Volumes Of The Dogmatics!’—and They Laugh About The Persons Who Write So Much About Karl Barth Instead Of Writing About The Things He Is Trying To Write About. Truly, The Angels Laugh.
