Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"Principles are only tools in the hands of God they will soon be thrown away when they are no longer useful."
Quote_1.png
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"The Church is the Church only when it exists for others...not dominating, but helping and serving. It must tell men of every calling what it means to live for Christ, to exist for others."
Quote_1.png
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"The essence of optimism is that it takes no account of the present, but it is a source of inspiration, of vitality and hope where others have resigned; it enables a man to hold his head high, to claim the future for himself and not to abandon it to his enemy."

"When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die."
Quote_1.png
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"Therefore let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers' (Rom 13.1). The Christian must not be drawn to the bearers of high office; his calling is to stay below. The higher power are over him, and he must remain under them. The world exercises dominion, the Christian serves, and thus he shares the earthly lot of his Lord, who became a servant. 'For there is no power but of God.' (Mark 10.42-45) These words are addressed to the Christians, not to the powers."

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"God can make a new beginning with people whenever God pleases, but not people with God. Therefore, people cannot make a new beginning at all; they can only pray for one. Where people are on their own and live by their own devices, there is only the old, the past."
Quote_1.png
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"If we are to pray aright perhaps it is quite necessary that we pray contrary to our own heart. Not what we want to pray is important but what God wants us to pray. The richness of the Word of God ought to determine our prayer not the poverty of our heart."

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"It is a wicked sophistry to justify the worldliness of the Church by the cross of Christ."
Quote_1.png
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"Christ became our Brother in order to help us. Through him our brother has become Christ for us in the power and authority of the commission Christ has given him. Our brother stands before us the sign of the truth and the grace of God. He has been given to us to help us. He hears the confession of our sins in Christ's stead and he forgives our sins in Christ's name. He keeps the secret of our confession as God keeps it. When I go to my brother to confess, I am going to God."

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
"God loves his work and therefore wills to preserve it. Creation and preservation are two aspects of the one activity of God."
