What the Bible Really Says | John Howard Yoder

If we may be freed by self-critical scholarly objectivity no longer to have to assume that the authority of the Bible resides in its saying things that we agree with, we may be free as well to hear more clearly what it really says instead of giving it credit for saying what we already think.

—John Howard Yoder, The Politics of Jesus, 214.

This is a great quote, and something that ought to be repeated more often in the Christian community.
