Famous quotes containing the words gospel and/or power:
“Theologians should not be ashamed to admit that they cannot enter a contest with such antagonists [the sceptics], and that they do not want to expose the Gospel truths to such an attack. The ship of Jesus Christ is not made for sailing on this stormy sea, but for taking shelter from this tempest in the haven of faith.”
—Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)
“We know that madness belongs to love,—what power to paint a vile object in hues of heaven.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
