Whoever Sees Christ As A

When Some Say That Good Works Are Forbidden When We Preach Faith Alone, It Is As If I Said To A Sick Man: "if You Had Health, You Would Have The Use Of All Your Limbs; But Without Health, The Works Of All Your Limbs Are Nothing"; And He Wanted To Infer That I Had Forbidden The Works Of All His Limbs.

I Am Much Afraid That The Schools Will Prove The Very Gates Of Hell, Unless They Diligently Labour In Explaining The Holy Scriptures, And Engraving Them In The Hearts Of Youth. I Advise No One To Place His Child Where The Scriptures Do Not Reign Paramount. Every Institution In Which Means Are Not Unceasingly Occupied With The Word Of God Must Be Corrupt.

Our Preaching Does Not Stop With The Law. That Would Lead To Wounding Without Binding Up, Striking Down And Not Healing, Killing And Not Making Alive, Driving Down To Hell And Not Bringing Back Up, Humbling And Not Exalting. Therefore, We Must Also Preach Grace And The Promise Of Forgiveness - This Is The Means By Which Faith Is Awakened And Properly Taught. Without This Word Of Grace, The Law, Contrition, Penitence, And Everything Else Are Done And Taught In Vain.

Stubbornness Should Have Been My Middle Name.

Faith Looks To The Word And The Promise; That Is, To The Truth. But Hope Looks To That Which The Word Has Promised, To The Gift .
