In great contests, each party claims to act in accordance with the will of God. Both may be, and one must be, wrong.

The God that Paul invented for himself, a God who reduced to absurdity the wisdom of this world (especially the two great enemies of superstition, philology and medicine), is in truth only an indication of Paul's resolute determination to accomplish that very thing himself: to give one's own will the name of God, Torah - that is essentially Jewish.

The decision we must make now is whether we will give our allegiance to outmoded and unjust customs or to the ethical demands of the universe. As Christians we owe our allegiance to God and His will, rather than to man and his folkways.

I would rather die than do something which I know to be a sin, or to be against God's will.

God cannot at the same time impose his will upon his children and also maintain his purpose for man.

It is difficult to make a man miserable while he feels worthy of himself, and claims kindred to the great God who made him.
