Christianity without discipleship is always Christianity without Christ.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Christianity without discipleship is always Christianity without Christ.

The limitation of the ethical phenomenon to its place and time does not imply its rejection but, on the contrary, its validation. One does not use canons to shoot sparrows.
DIETRICH BONHOEFFER

Only he who believes is obedient, and only he who is obedient believes.
DIETRICH BONHOEFFER

I can no longer condemn or hate a brother for whom I pray, no matter how much trouble he causes me.

By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.
DIETRICH BONHOEFFER

A love that left people alone in their guilt would not have real people as its object. So, in vicarious responsibility for people, and in His love for real human beings, Jesus becomes the one burdened by guilt.
