letting-go spiritual trade
The spiritual rest, which God particularly intends in this Commandment, is this: that we not only cease from our labor and trade, but much more, that we let God alone work in us and that we do nothing of our own with all our powers.
kings believe christ
All we who believe on Christ are kings and priests in Christ.
today dare things-to-do
I have so many things to do today, I dare not ignore my time with God.
religious humor air
We need not invite the Devil to our table; he is too ready to come without being asked. The air all about us is filled with demons...
religious humor pope
I feel much freer now that I am certain the pope is the Antichrist.
effectiveness thought-provoking grows
So great are the effectiveness and power of the Word of God that the more it is persecuted the more it flourishes and grows.
prayer praying heard
All who call on God in true faith...will certainly be heard.
church doctrine hours
This doctrine (justification) is the head and the cornerstone. It alone begets, nourishes, builds, preserves, and defends the church of God and without it the church of God cannot exist for one hour.
soul-and-body forever passing-away
I'll trust in God's unchanging Word, till soul and body sever. For though all things pass away, His Word shall stand forever.
teaching may doe
Whoever does not accept my teaching may not be saved -- for it is God's teaching and not mine.
father praying kind
Amen meaneth assuredly, namely, that I am sure that petitions of this kind are accepted by my Heavenly Father, and heard by him, because he hath commanded us, that we should pray after this manner, and hath promised that he will hear us. Amen, Amen: that is, truly, certainly, so be it.
firsts sin good-work
We ought first to know that there are no good works except those which God has commanded, even as there is no sin except that which God has forbidden.
evil church wish
Heretics cannot themselves appear good unless they depict the Church as evil, false, and mendacious. They alone wish to be esteemed as the good, but the Church must be made to appear evil in every respect.
calling world comfort
To comfort a sorrowful conscience is much better than to possess many kngdoms; yet the world regards it not; nay, condemns it, calling us rebels, dissturbers of the peace.
