AS LONG AS HE IS FAITHFUL TO THE WORD

 


  • That’s how it is with little sheep; its very life depends upon hearing.  If it doesn’t hear the shepherd’s voice, the wolves will soon be there.  Without the shepherd’s voice, all joy and assuran
    ce vanish and only fear and trembling remain.  That’s how it is also with a Christian.  If he loses the Word, all comfort is gone.  As long as he is faithful to the Word, he will behold Christ, his shepherd, and therewith everything Christ has earned and promised him, namely forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
--Martin Luther
