“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.

Without this word of grace, the law, contrition, penitence, and everything else are done and taught in vain.” MeanDoeDoneLawHealingHellGraceAliveTaughtPromiseDown AndKillingDrivingVainPreachingAwakenedBindingHumblingPenitenceContrition Author:Martin Luther
“On coming to the house, they (the Magi), saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. (Matthew 2:11) [This] adoration, too, was not the same as the worship of God.
