We conclude, therefore, that a Christian lives not in himself, but in Christ and in his neighbor. Otherwise he is not a Christian. He lives in Christ through faith, in his neighbor through love. By faith he is caught up beyond himself into God. By love he descends beneath himself into his neighbor.
Martin LutherYou should not believe your conscience and your feelings more than the word which the Lord who receives sinners preaches to you.
Martin LutherFaith does not inquire whether there are good works to be done, but even before asking questions, faith has done the works already.
Martin Luther
