Old Lutheran Quote of the Day
When he [the devil] would lead us into sin he magnifies the great mercy of God. When he has succeeded in leading us astray, he enlarges upon the rigorous justice of God. First he would lead us into presumptuous sin, and then attempt to drag us down into the depths of despair. -- Johann Gerhard, *Sacred Meditations* XXVII
