It was not like the kingdoms of this world. It was the kingdom of God, a supernatural kingdom.

Here he comes now with his little pushcart full of volumes of the Dogmatics!â€™â€”and they laugh about the persons who write so much about Karl Barth instead of writing about the things he is trying to write about. Truly, the angels laugh.”
