Text Quotes
A true Christian, who is born anew of the Spirit of Christ, is in the simplicity of Christ, and hath no strife or contention with any man about religion.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) In this world, with thy earthly life, thou art under heaven, stars, and elements, also under hell and devils; all ruleth in thee, and over thee.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) God wills in man only that which is good, in the kingdom of his grace; where the free will yields itself up into the grace, there God wills that which is good in the will, through the grace.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The law of God, and also the way to life, is written in our hearts: It lieth in no man’s supposition and knowing, nor in any historical opinion, but in a good will and well-doing.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) If men would as fervently seek after love and righteousness as they do after opinions, there would be no strife on earth, and we should be as children of one father, and should need no law or ordinance. For God is not served by any law, but only by obedience.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) All that men will serve God with must be done in Faith, viz. in the Spirit. It is the Spirit that maketh the work perfect, and acceptable in the sight of God. All that a man undertaketh and doeth in Faith, he doth in the Spirit of God, which Spirit of God doth co-operate in the work, and then it is acceptable to God.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) Love is higher than the Highest. Love is greater than the Greatest. Yea, it is in a certain sense greater than God; while yet, in the highest sense of all, God is Love, and Love is God. Love being the highest principle is the virtue of all virtues; from whence they flow forth.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) He that serves God is resigned up into him, and in all things has respect to truth and righteousness, and will promote that.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The perfect state, the summum bonum, is Play. In play, life expresses itself in its fullness. God’s life is play. Adam fell when his play became serious business .  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) All men who give up themselves in obedience unto God, they are received in Christ’s obedience, viz. in the fulfilling of the obedience, the Jew and the Christian, and so likewise the heathen who has neither the law nor Gospel.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) If we incline our wills in true earnest singleness to God, then we go with Christ out of this world, out from the stars and elements, and enter into God; for in the will of reason we are children of the stars and elements, and the spirit of this world ruleth over us.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) When the Soul that is sprung from God’s Word and Will is entered into its own desire to will of itself, it will run in mere uncertainty till it return to its Original again.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The pure Deity is in all places and all corners, and present every where all over: the birth of the holy Trinity in one essence is every where: and the angelical world reacheth to every part, wherever you can think, even in the midst of the earth, stones, and rocks: as also hell and the kingdom of God’s wrath is every where all over.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) Just as a drop of water in the ocean cannot avail much; but if a great river runneth into it, that maketh a great commotion.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The city Babel is the Ham-like man, who builds this city upon the earth; the tower is his self-chosen God, and divine worship. All reason-taught, from the school of this world, are the master-builders of this tower.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The liver signifieth the element of water, and it is also the water; for from the liver cometh the blood in the whole body into all the members. The liver is the mother of the blood.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The sweet quality is set opposite to the bitter, and is a gracious, amiable, blessed and pleasant quality, a refreshing of the life, an allaying of the fierceness. It maketh all pleasant and friendly in every creature; it maketh the vegetables of the earth fragrant and of good taste, affording fair, yellow, white and ruddy colours.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The sour quality is set opposite to the bitter and the sweet, and is a good temper to all, a refreshing and cooling when the bitter and the sweet qualities are too much elevated or too preponderant.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) We are children of the eternity: But this world is an out-birth out of the eternal; and its palpability taketh its original in the anger; the eternal nature is its root.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) A Christian is of no sect. He can dwell in the midst of sects, and appear in their services, without being attached or bound to any. He hath but one knowledge, and that is, Christ in him.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) When we consider the beginning of our life, and compare the same with the eternal life, which we have in the promise, we cannot say nor find that we are at home in this life.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) All strife concerning Christ’s testaments cometh hence that men do not understand that Heaven wherein Christ sitteth at the right hand of God. They understand not that he is in this World, and that the World standeth in Heaven, and Heaven in the World, and are in one another, as Day and Night.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) God’s love-eye does not see essentially into the wicked rebellious apostate soul; neither also into the devil, but his anger-eye sees thereinto; that is, God, according to the property of the anger or fire of wrath, sees in the devil, and in the false soul.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The holy angels live and qualify in the light, in the good quality wherein the Holy Ghost reigneth. The devils live and reign in the fierce wrathful quality, in the quality of fierceness and wrath, destruction or perdition.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) The virtue of Love is nothing and all, or that Nothing visible out of which All Things proceed. Its power is through All Things; its height is as high as God; its greatness is as great as God.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) Adam was the image of God, he was man and woman, and yet neither of them before his Eve, but a masculine virgin in peculiar love, full of chastity and purity.  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) As the science of every thing is in the formed Word, so also is God’s will therein: That same expressed Word is in the angels, angelical; in the devils, diabolical; in man, human; in beasts, bestial  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) You are at enmity with yourself  (Jakob Bohme Quotes) Everything we see in nature is manifested truth; only we are not able to recognize it unless truth is manifest within ourselves  (Jakob Bohme Quotes)
