Unchristian Quotes

• To the Christian, love is the works of love. To say that love is a feeling or anything of the kind is an unchristian conception of love. That is the aesthetic definition and therefore fits the erotic and everything of that nature. But to the Christian love is the works of love. Christ's love was not an inner feeling, a full heart and what not, it was the work of love which was his life.

  Soren Kierkegaard

• De todas las bebidas poco cristianas que han pasado por mis labios, el café turco es la peor. La taza es pequeña, está manchada de posos; el café es negro, espeso, de olor desagradable y sabor execrable. El fondo de la taza tiene un sedimento fangoso de media pulgada de profundidad. Esto baja por la garganta, y partes de él se alojan por el camino, y producen un cosquilleo agravante que te mantiene ladrando y tosiendo durante una hora.

• Uno se pregunta por qué los cristianos de hoy se libran tan fácilmente. ¿Es porque los americanos no cristianos son mucho mejores que los romanos no cristianos, o es que nuestra luz es tan tenue que el verdugo no puede verla? ¿Qué cosas hacemos que merezcan ser perseguidas?

• ¿Comprendemos la gravedad del pecado de la deshonestidad? No sólo es anticristiano, es anticristiano... ¡es anticristo! Ya sea mentir, engañar, robar o defraudar; ya sea en el hogar, en los negocios, en los deportes o en el aula; la deshonestidad es completamente ajena a las enseñanzas de Jesús.

• This philosophical postulate that the end of all being is the happiness of man has been sort-of covered over with evangelical terms and biblical doctrine - until God reigns in heaven for the happiness of man, Jesus Christ was incarnate for the happiness of man, all the angels exist and ... everything is for the happiness of man - and I submit to you that this is unchristian.

De hecho, pensándolo bien, no las usaré entonces, porque son poco cristianas, poco elegantes y degradantes, aunque hablando con franqueza, no veo cómo el alquiler de la casa y los impuestos van a ser discutidos sin ellas.

Es Israel quien nos ha traído el mensaje de que Dios es nuestro Padre. Es Israel quien, al traernos la ley divina, ha puesto los cimientos de la libertad.

• It is short-sighted, not to say stupid, in the correct desire to be relevant as Christian artists in an unchristian age, to pick up the secular fashion of the immediate generation before us and immerse oneself in that as your tradition. That's why Christian artists so often seem to be a generation late.
