The popular quote, "The Old Testament is the New concealed, and the New Testament is the Old revealed." Or some such paraphrase of the same.
I don't just need an attribution, I need a source. Who said it and where? I've heard it was either Augustine or Irenaeus in his "Against Heresies." Anybody know?If there is anything I’ve learned from both conservatives and liberals, it’s that we can have all the “right” answers and still be mean. And when you’re mean, it’s hard for people to listen to, much less desire, your truth.

Never mind, I found it. It's in St. Augustine's Catechizing of the Uninstructed, 4.8.

Glad that [s]we[/s] you could help.
"If God has given [his people] such joy now, joy in their faith, in their hope, in love, in the truth of his scriptures, what kind of joy is he preparing for them at the end? If he feeds them like this on the journey, how will he feast them in their homeland?"--Augustine of Hippo
"It cannot be that the people should grow in grace unless they give themselves to reading. A reading people will always be a knowing people."--John Wesley
"Wherever men are still theological there is still some chance of their being logical."--G. K. Chesterton
