Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved.

Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?

I compare it with a lie, which like to a snowball, the longer it is rolled the greater it becomes.

Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that the believer would stake his life on it a thousand times.

I cannot neglect prayer for a single day.

The Lord commonly gives riches to foolish people, to whom he gives nothing else.

Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favour that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace.
