The Devil Doesn't Stay Where

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.

For That Purpose Christ Instituted Holy Baptism, Thereby To Clothe You With His Righteousness. It Is Tantamount To His Saying, My Righteousness Shall Be Your Righteousness; My Innocence, Your Innocence. Your Sins Indeed Are Great, But By Baptism I Bestow On You My Righteousness; I Strip Death From You And Clothe You With My Life.

When The Devil Wants To Cause Offense Against The True Doctrine And Faith, He Does Not Do So Through Insignificant People, Who Do Not Rate Highly With The World, But Through Those Who Are The Very Best, The Wisest, The Holiest, And The Most Learned.

The Curses Of The Ungodly Are More Pleasing To God's Ears Than The Hallelujahs Of The Pious

The Law Is For The Proud And The Gospel For The Brokenhearted.
