Daily Luther Sermon Quote - Trinity 8 - "St. Peter and St. Paul do not
preach their own word, but God’s Word, as Paul himself testifies in 1
Thessalonians 2:13: “When ye receive the Word of God which ye heard of us,
ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the Word of
God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.” Surely, a person
can preach the Word to me, but no one is able to put it into my heart
except God alone, who must speak to the heart, or all is vain; for when he
is silent, the Word is not spoken. Hence no one shall draw me from the Word
which God teaches me."
