Patristic Quote for the Day

"I do not wish that credence be given us; let the Scripture be quoted. Not of myself do I say: 'In the beginning was the Word,' but I hear it; I do not feign but I read what we all read..." Saint Ambrose ("The Sacrament of the Incarnation of our Lord," 3:14, The Fathers of the Church, Vol. 44, p. 224)

[Thanks to Pr. Webber who posted the above on the Orthodox-Lutheran Dialog]
