We are justified freely, for Christ’s sake, by faith, without the exertion of our own strength, gaining of merit, or doing of works. To the age-old question, ‘What shall I do to be saved?’ the confessional answer is shocking: ‘Nothing! 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!’

A comprehended God is no God at all!

...the Blessed will see their friends and relations among the damned as often as they like but without the least of compassion.

The preaching of Jesus Christ and him crucified on account of sinners is Gods desired way of being God.

Christian growth is forgetting about yourself.
