God of the Possible Quotes

“It takes a greater God to steer a world populated with free agents than it does to steer a world of preprogrammed automatons.”
― Gregory A. Boyd, God of the Possible: A Biblical Introduction to the Open View of God

“Every day we choose not to commit suicide we are manifesting our fundamental conviction that life is worth it, despite all the pain we may experience.”
― Gregory A. Boyd, God of the Possible: A Biblical Introduction to the Open View of God

“If we only love those who agree with us, we are in fact not loving others at all; we are only loving the (assumed) “rightness” of our own ideas!”
― Gregory A. Boyd, God of the Possible: A Biblical Introduction to the Open View of God

“Biblically, God is repeatedly depicted as facing a partially open future. Theologically, several unsolvable problems inherent in the classical view can be avoided when one accepts that God is the God of the possible and not simply a God of eternally static certainties. Practically, a God of eternally static certainties is incapable of interacting with humans in a relevant way. The God of the possible, by contrast, is a God who can work with us to truly change what might have been into what should be.”
― Gregory A. Boyd, God of the Possible: A Biblical Introduction to the Open View of God
