All objectors against this doctrine of justification by faith alone, must be answered after this manner: Here is Christ, there are the testimonies of the Scriptures touching law and works...
Therefore, if He be the price of my redemption, if He be made sin and malediction that He might justify and bless me, I care not if thou bring a thousand places of Scripture for the righteousness of works, against the righteousness of faith. I have the Author and Lord of the Scripture with me; on whose side I would rather stand, than believe all the rabblement of law-workers and meritmongers.
Martin Luther, Krebel, Galatians 3:10, p. 155f.
