Whatever is Scripture is either law or gospel. One of the two must triumph: the law leads to despair, the gospel leads to Salvation. I learn more about this every day...The gospel is life. The Pope drove me to this; he opened my eyes to it. It is as Augustine said to himself: the heretics provoke us to search the Scriptures. Otherwise nobody would think about them (Luther on Being A Theologian)

grumpy has left a new comment on your post "Luther Blesses the Church and Money Changers: Here...":
I like this picture of the young Luther...he looks resolute, determined, and tough.
His expression says: "If you rip this down you better have a sound theological reason or we are going to have a "talk" ".
You would want to have this guy on your side during a theological fight...
