Bonhoeffer’s Best Quote

On April 29, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

‘Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of the church. We are fighting today for costly grace. Cheap grace means grace without price, grace without cost. Cheap grace means grace as a doctrine, a principle, a system. [It is] forgiveness without repentance… communion without confession, grace without discipleship’.

(Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship, 1963, 45-7, 59)
