Origen
Now the true soldiers of Christ must always be prepared to do battle for the truth, and must never, so far as lies with them, allow false convictions to creep in.
Origen
The Word of God is like a lamp to guide us.
Origen
That which is called God's wrath, and anger, is a means of discipline.
Origen
God puts Christ's enemies as a footstool beneath His feet, for their salvation as well as their destruction.
Origen
