According to the Law, everyone will be judged by their own deeds, on his own work. So, before the judgment of God we only have our own works to boast in and not our neighbor’s. But the Gospel shows us a wonderful exception.

The creeds provide a means of unified confession that is biblically sound, transcending denominational lines of demarcation.

God may be all-powerful, but he has an odd way of showing it. He tends to work his power through weakness, brokenness, even a cross.

When the church has gone astray, it has been the responsible (not slavish) approach to history that has helped correct the course.

This creed is no mere squabble over words. Salvation is on the line.

I’d like to offer a short reflection on the theme of “worldliness” as it appears in his later work and how that’s connected to an item of his Lutheran heritage: the theology of the cross.

Baptism demolishes all boasting, for it is passively received and all that is received is pure gift. No one can, therefore, boast a better salvation than another.

Perhaps best known for his “wager,” Pascal is often associated with this curious argument for the existence of God and eternal blessedness.

Naturally each individual forgets the beam in his own eye and perceives only the mote in his neighbor’s. One will not bear with the faults of the other; each requires perfection of his fellow.
