Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

God wanted to show all future generations that He do not lead the Gentiles to His dear Son by miracles, by stars, by angels, or by some other extraordinary heavenly appearance. Instead, He directed them by means of men, His already existing church. We see from this that the mission to the Gentiles is a duty of the Church. -- C.F.W. Walther, *God Grant It!* pp. 99, 100
