Tilvitnun!

Þar sem að ég hef alveg sérstaklega gaman af því að koma með tilvitnanir í bækur sem að ég er að lesa ákvað ég að bregða ekki út af þeim vana og setja fram hér eins sem að mér finnst alveg sérstaklega góð! Hún er úr bókinni "In Search of Paul. How Jesus´s Apostle Opposed Rome´s Empire with God´s Kingdom". Bókin er eftir þá félaga John Dominic Crossan og Jonathan L .Reed.

"All of that is, quite simply, Paul´s egalitarian vision in action of a Christian kenotic community that empties itself in love and service for others. But, as some at Chorinth assured him, that is not how the wise and strong if this world operate, not outside Christianity and not inside it either. That is not, they could have said, the normalcy of either civilization or regligion, wich always work by wisdom and strength overpowering foolishness and weakness. To wich Paul´s only reply would have been: Yes, but "God´s foolishness is wiser than human wisdom, and God´s weakness is stronger than human strength (1.Kor.1.25)".
