Quote of the day

“God himself not only is the truth and the whole truth, but he is also the revelation and the whole revelation that he is the truth. How could the statement that the Bible is his word be proved in any other way than by an act of free grace by which he himself makes the proof? Would it be the word of God if it could be verified except by him?”

—Karl Barth, The Word of God and the Word of Man (London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1928), p. 244.
