“Anybody who wishes to be a theologian must have a fair mastery of the Scriptures, so that he may have an explanation for whatever can be alleged against any passage. That is to say, he must distinguish between law and gospel. If I were able to do this perfectly I would never again be sad. Whoever apprehends this has won.” Martin Luther, Tabletalk, Dietrich #626, fall 1533, Luther's Works, American Edition, 54:111
