Theology Is Not A Private Subject For Theologians Only. Nor Is It A Private Subject For Professors. Fortunately, There Have Always Been Pastors Who Have Understood More About Theology Than Most Professors. Nor Is Theology A Private Subject Of Study For Pastors. Fortunately, There Have Repeatedly Been Congregation Members, And Often Whole Congregations, Who Have Pursued Theology Energetically While Their Pastors Were Theological Infants Or Barbarians. Theology Is A Matter For The Church.

Faith Is Not An Art. Faith Is Not An Achievement. Faith Is Not A Good Work Of Which Some May Boast While Others Can Excuse Themselves With A Shrug Of The Shoulders For Not Being Capable Of It. It Is A Decisive Insight Of Faith Itself That All Of Us Are Incapable Of Faith In Ourselves, Whether We Think Of Its Preparation, Beginning, Continuation, Or Completion.
