More quotes by Origen
The Word of God is like a lamp to guide us.
Origen
What man of sense will agree with the statement that the first, second and third days, in which the evening and morning were named, were without sun, moon and stars? What man is found such an idiot as to suppose that God planted trees in Paradise, in Eden, Like a Husbandman?
Origen
When anyone prays, the angels that minister to God and watch over mankind gather round about him and join with him in prayer.
Origen
We must believe what is good and true about the prophets, that they were sages, that they did understand what proceeded from their mouths, and that they bore prudence on their lips.
Origen
God puts Christ's enemies as a footstool beneath His feet, for their salvation as well as their destruction.
Origen
The physical voice we use in prayer need not be great nor startling even should we not lift up any great cry or shout, God will yet hear us.
Origen
You yourself are even another little world and have within you the sun and the moon and also the stars.
Origen
You cannot demand military service of Christians any more than you can of priests. We do not go forth as soldiers with the Emperor even if he demands this.
Origen
Every soul... comes into the world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of its' previous life. Its' place in this world as a vessel appointed to honor or dishonor, is determined by its' previous merits or demerits. Its' work in this world determines its' place in the world which is to follow this.
Origen
What each man honours before all else, what before all things he admires and loves, this for him is God.
Origen
Those who believe the Author of Nature to be also the Author of Scripture must expect to find in Scripture the same sorts of difficulties that they find in Nature.
Origen
For we no longer take up sword against nation, nor do we learn war any more, having become children of peace, for the sake of Jesus, who is our leader.
Origen
The discussion of prayer is so great that it requires the Father to reveal it, His firstborn Word to teach it, and the Spirit to enable us to think and speak rightly of so great a subject.
Origen
When a house is being built which is to be made as strong as possible, the building takes place in fine weather and in calm, so that nothing may hinder the structure from acquiring the needed solidity.
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
What good does it do me if Christ was born in Bethlehem once if he is not born again in my heart through faith?
Origen
Conscience is the chamber of justice.
Origen
But God, who is the beginning of all things, is not to be regarded as a composite being, lest perchance there should be found to exist elements prior to the beginning itself, out of which everything is composed, whatever that be which is called composite.
Origen
The human heart is no small thing, for it can embrace so much.
Origen
It is in our power to stretch out our arms and, by doing good in our actions, to seize life and set it in our soul.
Origen
