Anything offered under the name 'Sacrament' to which, however, a promise of grace has not been added is not accepted as a Sacrament. #Lect34
Christ's body does not produce physical effects, as Modernists claim when saying that it implants in people the seed of immortality. #Lect34
The mere mechanical action of being baptized, if it is not accompanied by faith, will earn for a person nothing but perdition. #Lect34
Baptism, according to Lutheran teaching, is not regeneration, but effects it, produces it; it is a means of regeneration. #Lect34
Christianity is not a Masonic society. When God commands a sacramental act, He commands something upon which our salvation depends. #Lect34
What is to urge a person to go to Communion is the promise of grace which God has attached to the visible signs in the Sacrament. #Lect34
The lustrous star that shines from out of the Sacraments is the Word. #Lect34
Of chief importance: that you believe that this body was given FOR YOU and that this blood was shed for the remission of YOUR sins. #Lect34
An unbeliever who receives Baptism does not put on Christ, but keeps on the spotted garment of sinful flesh. #Lect34
Even if a person could not have Baptism administered to himself, he would be saved, as long as he believed. #Lect34
Faith is the primary necessity; Baptism is something to which faith holds. #Lect34
Belief: accepting a present is not a work by which I earn the present, but it signifies laying hold of what is being offered. #Lect34
Any teaching which says people are saved by works and not by grace alone is an error that subverts the Christian foundation. #Lect34
Works, alone, will not benefit a person. This is proved by all passages which testify that the Gospel requires nothing but faith. #Lect34
Both, yes both these efforts are necessary: to defend the truth and to oppose every doctrinal error. #Lect34
A single false teaching vitiates the entire body of the Christian doctrine, even as a little poison when dropped into pure water. #Lect34
German theologians: "Bah! We are seeking after truth, but only a conceited, self-satisfied person will claim to have achieved it." #Lect34
Contempt of the pure doctrine is proof that we are living in an unspeakably lamentable era. #Lect34
Contempt for the pure doctrine is contempt of the truth; the pure doctrine is simply nothing else than the pure Word of God. #Lect34
Some theologians think pure doctrine does not exist except in a dream-world, in the realm of the ideals, in the Republic of Plato. #Lect34
