“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.” FirstsPersonsHas BeensIdeasSelfHelpingLawSinPleasurePoorBreakGraceSelf HelpBrokenHolyMessagesConscienceDenySelf ConfidenceGladHealSavingBeastSmokingSinnerGrantsRighteousnessFrightenedSaviorFistsHammersHeartedCaptivesReedsBruisedSelf RighteousnessBroken HeartedQuenchTidingsForgiveness Of SinsFlax Author:Martin Luther

“I think what Secretary Ash Carter is seeing, and I'm glad he is, is that we got to get NATO back working for the common defense. We've got to do more to support our partners in NATO, and we have to send a very clear message to Putin that this kind of belligerence, that this kind of testing of boundaries will have to be responded to. The best way to do that is to put more armor in, put more money from the Europeans in so they're actually contributing more to their own defense.” ThinkingWayKindCommonSupportClearSeeingMessagesDefensePartnersGladBoundariesBest WayMore MoneyAshesSecretaryTestingPutinCarterArmorContributingNatoBelligerenceCommon Defense Author:Hillary Clinton
