We are justified freely, for Christโs sake, by faith, without the exertion of our own strength, gaining of merit, or doing of works. To the age-old question, โWhat shall I do to be saved?โ the confessional answer is shocking: โNothing! Just be still; shut up and listen for once in your life to what God the Almighty, creator and redeemer, is saying to his world and to you in the death and resurrection of his Son! Listen and believe!โ
GerhardThe preaching of Jesus Christ and him crucified on account of sinners is Gods desired way of being God.
