Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

The doctrine of the Lord's Supper is the most vital and practical in the whole range of the profoundest Christian life - the doctrine which, beyond all others, conditions and vitalizes that life, for in it the character of faith is determined, invigorated, and purified as it is nowhere else. It is not only a fundamental doctrine, but it is among the most fundamental of fundamentals. -- C. P. Krauth, *Conservative Reformation* p. 655
