More quotes by Peter Kreeft
Every gift requires two freedoms: the giver's and the receiver's.
Peter Kreeft
One of the few things in life that cannot possibly do harm in the end is the honest pursuit of the truth.
Peter Kreeft
You have an evil twin who is always with you. He is called your ego.
Peter Kreeft
The self is like a baseball. Throw it back to the divine pitcher who pitched it to you in the first place, and the game of love goes on. Hold it, and the game is over. That is the difference between Heaven and Hell.
Peter Kreeft
When a maniac is at the door, feuding brothers reconcile.
Peter Kreeft
Most people believe you have to have some moral absolutes if you want to hold back chaos.
Peter Kreeft
Faith is not like bottled water but like rain. Its destiny is not just to be kept and held but to make something visible grow.
Peter Kreeft
Now if the religious skeptic is right, we can know nothing about God. And if we can know nothing about God, how can we know God so well that we can know that he cannot be known? How can we know that God cannot and did not reveal himself—and perhaps even through human reason?
Peter Kreeft
Atheists in C.S. Lewis' day were as snobbish and arrogant as they are now, but better educated and more capable of debate.
Peter Kreeft
A God who did not abolish suffering-worse , a God who abolished sin precisely by suffering-is a scandal to the modern mind.
Peter Kreeft
In an age that has thrown off all tradition, the only rebellion possible is orthodoxy.
Peter Kreeft
God created the possibility of evil people actualized that potentiality. The source of evil is not God's power but mankind's freedom. Even an all-powerful God could not have created a world in which people had genuine freedom and yet there was no potentiality for sin, because our freedom includes the possibility of sin within its own meaning.
Peter Kreeft
There is one and only one possible road to joy: selfless love.
Peter Kreeft
A pure heart means a single heart, a heart in which only one desire lives: love.
Peter Kreeft
Abortion is the insurance against that fate worse than death which is called a family.
Peter Kreeft
Americans' deepest religion is often equality. The notion that Christ alone is God-superior, authoritative, supernatural-and that Christ's teaching and person is far greater than Buddha's, or Muhammad's, or Moses's, no matter how much great and good wisdom may be contained in those others, is scandalous.
Peter Kreeft
Our culture has filled our heads but emptied our hearts, stuffed our wallets but starved our wonder. It has fed our thirst for facts but not for meaning or mystery. It produces nice people, not heroes.
Peter Kreeft
If we turn to the divine Conductor and follow the wise and loving baton that is His will, His Word, then the music of our life will be a symphony.
Peter Kreeft
Only God may be adored, because only God is unlimited goodness, truth, and beauty, and thus only God deserves unlimited love.
Peter Kreeft
Bad times make good people, as mountainous pressures make diamonds or as fire tempers steel.
