Old Lutheran Quote of the Day
If you regard yourself as one of the elect, do not forget that you have been chosen not only for adoption and salvation but also for holiness. Remember that you cannot do anything to be saved but there is much you can do to forfeit that salvation. - C. F. W. Walther, *God Grant It!* p. 484

Well, yeah, after all, holiness is the whole point!
All it takes to forfeit salvation is Doing Nothing. Sterile branches get pruned and burned.

Brother Will,
I enjoy reading your excerpts from "God Grant It." I use it myself in daily devotions and it's been a true blessing.
I'd welcome your input on a post on my blog regarding the historic lectionary, if you don't mind. It's found here.
Thanks!
