The Faith of the Christian Church Quotes

“The Spirit' assures us that God is not distant and that he is not in reality an extra-mundane being who sits enthroned in exalted eminence, and who from this eminence possibly sends a few messages down to the world; but, on the contrary, that God is near to us and that he is immediately and effectively active in our life.”
― Gustaf Aulén, The Faith of the Christian Church
