Law and Gospel

While all Scripture is the self-revelation of God, not all Scripture should be read in the same way.

Jesus’s freedom is different. It isn’t meant to indicate that the moorings which tether men and women to what is true, beautiful, and holy are unfastened, liberating them to do anything they please.

The upright, in whom the law has exercised its work, when they feel their sickness and weakness, say: God will help me; I trust in him; I build upon him; he is my rock and hope.

Erasmus laid out his argument for a theology of grace and free will in much the same way modern Protestants have done since the Enlightenment.

As long as the church teaches the gospel, it will suffer persecution.
