On Not Leaving God Out of It

Sharing Options

“If we say that we are saved on the basis of the Bible alone, we are not making any claims about the paper, the ink, and the leather or the maps, concordance, and ribbons. In the same way we are not saved by water, or by bread and wine. The surgeon may pick up many different instruments in the course of the operation, but it is the surgeon who is doing it” (Against the Church, p. 23).
