A History of Christian Thought, Vol. 1 Quotes

“throughout the whole history of Christianity there has been a tension between the past and the present, between the given and the sought, between revelation as a deposit in some sense and revelation as the goal of an endeavor, between the faith to be conserved and the truth to be acquired. The tension has not been resolved by the centuries of Christian thought, but a solution cannot be attempted without taking them into account.”
― Justo L. González, A History of Christian Thought Volume I: From the Beginnings to the Council of Chalcedon
