And I Myself, In Rome, Heard It

My Counsel Is, That We Draw Water From The True Source And Fountain, That Is, That We Diligently Search The Scriptures. He Who Wholly Possesses The Text Of The Bible, Is A Consummate Divine.

Christ Wants To Slay Reason And Subdue The Arrogance Of The Jews.

That The Creator Himself Comes To Us And Becomes Our Ransom - This Is The Reason For Our Rejoicing.

The Fatuous Idea That A Person Can Be Holy By Himself Denies God The Pleasure Of Saving Sinners. God Must Therefore First Take The Sledge-hammer Of The Law In His Fists And Smash The Beast Of Self-righteousness And Its Brood Of Self-confidence, Self Wisdom, And Self-help. When The Conscience Has Been Thoroughly Frightened By The Law It Welcomes The Gospel Of Grace With Its Message Of A Savior Who Came-not To Break The Bruised Reed Nor To Quench The Smoking Flax-but To Preach Glad Tidings To The Poor, To Heal The Broken-hearted, And To Grant Forgiveness Of Sins To All The Captives.

All Who Call On God In True Faith...will Certainly Be Heard.
