Faith Is The Master, And Reason The

Nothing On Earth Is So Well-suited To Make The Sad Merry, The Merry Sad, To Give Courage To The Despairing, To Make The Proud Humble, To Lessen Envy And Hate, As Music.

Our Loving God Wills That We Eat, Drink And Be Merry.

All The Passages In The Holy Scriptures That Mention Assistance Are They That Do Away With "free-will", And These Are Countless...for Grace Is Needed, And The Help Of Grace Is Given, Because "free-will" Can Do Nothing.

If There Is Anything In Us, It Is Not Our Own; It Is A Gift Of God. But If It Is A Gift Of God, Then It Is Entirely A Debt One Owes To Love, That Is, To The Law Of Christ. And If It Is A Debt Owed To Love, Then I Must Serve Others With It, Not Myself.

Our Preaching Does Not Stop With The Law. That Would Lead To Wounding Without Binding Up, Striking Down And Not Healing, Killing And Not Making Alive, Driving Down To Hell And Not Bringing Back Up, Humbling And Not Exalting. Therefore, We Must Also Preach Grace And The Promise Of Forgiveness - This Is The Means By Which Faith Is Awakened And Properly Taught. Without This Word Of Grace, The Law, Contrition, Penitence, And Everything Else Are Done And Taught In Vain.
