“Martin Luther King challenged the conscience of my generation, and his words and his legacy continue to move generations to action today at home and around the world. His love and faith is alive in millions of Americans who volunteer each day in soup kitchens or in schools, or who refused to ignore the suffering of millions they'd never met in far-away places when a tsunami brought unthinkable destruction. His vision and his passion is alive in churches and on campuses when millions stand up against the injustice of discrimination anywhere, or the indifference that leaves too many behind.” WorldHomeTodayActionSchoolMovingSufferingPassionChurchBehindsVisionMillionsAliveGenerationsKingsMetsConscienceDestructionInjusticeDiscriminationAround The WorldLegacyIndifferenceKitchenEach DayFar AwayVolunteerSoupHis LoveLutherMy GenerationCampusUnthinkableTsunamiFaith And LoveSoup Kitchens Author:John F.

“Martin Luther described the doctrine of justification by faith as the article of faith that decides whether the church is standing or falling. By this he meant that when this doctrine is understood, believed, and preached, as it was in New-Testament times, the church stands in the grace of God and is alive; but where it is neglected, overlaid, or denied, ... the church falls from grace and its life drains away, leaving it in a state of darkness and death.” StatesFallChurchChristianityDarknessGraceAliveUnderstoodStandingLeavingDoctrineArticlesDeniedJustificationTestamentLutherGrace Of GodNeglectedNew TestamentDrainsJustification By FaithFalls From Grace Author:J.
