Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

He retained nothing, not even His life, shedding the last drop of His precious blood on the cross, all for us. He died to persuade us that we might become like Him, that we might again be glorified in His divine image, that we might no longer live for ourselves, and that we might participate in salvation and the eternal communion with God. -- C.F.W. Walther, *God Grant It!* p. 370
