“A new and more powerful proclamation of the law is perhaps the most pressing need of the hour... A low view of law always brings legalism into religion; a high view of law makes man a seeker after grace. Pray that the high view may prevail.”
“We tend to have a wrong view of law and to think of it as something that is opposed to grace. But it is not. Law is only opposed to grace in the sense that there was once a covenant of law, and we are now under the covenant of grace.”
“In mari's view this difficulty was due not to chaos or disorganization or anarchy , but to an excess of order. Society had more & more rules , and laws that contradicted the rules , and new rules that contradicted the laws.”
“Truth flows from universal law, not personal views.”
“grace at a low cost, is in the last resort simply a new law, which brings neither help nor freedom.”
“Before God and high heaven, is there a law for one man which is not a law for every other man?”
