Quotes about Mountain
seen or unseen, in sun or clouds, broiling or frigid, it just sits, being itself. At times visited by violent storms, buffeted by snow and rain and winds of unthinkable magnitude, through it all the mountain sits.

I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land.

It was the breeze that made her look up, a change in the texture of the unseen, a change in the texture of her heart. She was ready.

There does not exist any more a holy mountain or a holy city or holy land which can be marked on a map.

The reason is that all prophecy is now fulfilled in Jesus, and God's holiness in space, like all God's holiness, is now called and is Jesus of Nazareth.
- Karl Barth
