Quote by William Adams

Eternal life does not depend upon our perfection; but because it does depend upon the grace of Christ and the love of the Spirit, that love shall prompt us to emulate perfection.

Eternal life does not depend upon our perfection; but becaus

Summary

This quote suggests that eternal life is not granted solely based on our own perfection or righteousness. Instead, it emphasizes that it is through the grace of Christ and the love of the Spirit that we can attain eternal life. However, because of this love, we are encouraged to strive for perfection and mimic it in our own lives. In other words, although perfection is not a requirement for eternal life, the love we receive should inspire us to pursue excellence and righteousness.

I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind.

I have no concern with any economic criticisms of the communist system; I cannot inquire into whether the abolition of private property is expedient or advantageous. But I am able to recognize that the psychological premisses on which the system is based are an untenable illusion. In abolishing private property we deprive the human love of aggression of one of its instruments... but we have in no way altered the differences in power and influence which are misused by aggressiveness.
