z díla Christian Theology after Auschwitz
Originál: (en) The message of the Holocaust to Christian theology, as I see it, is that at whatever cost to its own self-understanding, the church must be willing to confront the ideologies implicit in its doctrinal tradition. We must be willing to sever ourselves from the ideological deformation, whatever they may be, even if we do not know as yet how to formulate the positive content of God's revelation in Jesus Christ, even if we must live with a few question marks for a while.

„Buďte ujištěni, že v teologii není nic nového mimo toho, co je falešné.“
Originál: (en) Rest assured that there is nothing new in theology except that which is false.
Zdroj: Spurgeon: Prince of Preachers. S. 613.
Originál: (en) This is the doctrine that we preach; if a man be saved, all the honor is to be given to Christ; but if a man be lost, all the blame is to be laid upon himself. You will find all true theology summed up in these two short sentences, salvation is all of the grace of God, damnation is all of the will of man.

„Lidé se nikdy nestanou velikými v teologii, dokud se nestanou velikýmí v utrpení.“
Originál: (en) Men will never become great in divinity until they become great in suffering.

Originál: (en) It is indeed to be desired that solid scriptural theology (…) should be valued in the church. Books in which Scripture is reverently regarded as the only rule of faith and practice — books in which Christ and the Holy Ghost have their rightful office — books in which justification, and sanctification, and regeneration, and faith, and grace, and holiness are clearly, distinctly, and accurately delineated and exhibited, these are the only books which do real good. Few things need reviving more than a taste for such books as these among readers.
Originál: (en) We corrupt the Word of God most dangerously, when we throw any doubt on the plenary inspiration of any part of Holy Scripture. This is not merely corrupting the cup, but the whole fountain. This is not merely corrupting the bucket of living water, which we profess to present to our people, but poisoning the whole well. Once wrong on this point, the whole substance of our religion is in danger. It is a flaw in the foundation. It is a worm at the root of our theology. Once allow this worm to gnaw the root, and we must not be surprised if the branches, the leaves, and the fruit, little by little decay.

Originál: (en) It is not the work of the Spirit, to tell you the meaning of Scripture, and give you the knowledge of divinity, without your own study and labour, but to bless that study, and give you knowledge thereby. (…) To reject study on pretence of the sufficiency of the Spirit, is to reject the Scripture itself.

„Řeč modliteb je většinou mnohem dramatičtější a odbojnější než uhlazující a uvážlivá řeč teologie.“
„Nejen poezie je teologií, nýbrž i teologie je poezií.“
