The impudence of the sinner displeases God as much as the modesty of the penitent gives him pleasure.

I was made a sinner by deriving my being from Adam; I am made just by being washed in the blood of Christ and not by Christ's 'words and example.'

God is best known in not knowing him.

You wish me to tell you why and how God should be loved. My answer is that God himself is the reason he is to be loved.

God, who preferred the correction rather than the death of a sinner, did not desire that a homicide be punished by the exaction of another act of homicide.

To lovers of the truth, nothing can be put before God and hope in Him.
