Dietrich Bonhoeffer Quotes

He Stands Between Us And God, And For That Very Reason He Stands Between Us And All Other Men And Things. He Is The Mediator, Not Only Between God And Man, But Between Man And Man, Between Man And Reality. Since The Whole World Was Created Through Him And Unto Him (John 1.3; I Cor. 8.6; Heb. 1.2), He Is The Sole Mediator In The World. Since His Coming Man Has No Immediate Relationship Of His Own Any More To Anything, Neither To God Nor To The World; Christ Wants To Be The Mediator. Of Course, There Are Plenty Of Gods Who Offer Men Direct Access, And The World Naturally Uses Every Means In Its Power To Retain Its Direct Hold On Men, But That Is The Very Reason Why It Is So Bitterly Opposed To Christ, The Mediator.
