Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Today, however, we see Him triumphant while Satan writhes, powerless, his head crushed beneath the feet of the almighty Victor. For the sake of our sin, having once wrestled with death and having been swallowed up as death's prey with open vengeance, He is now clothed with a glorious body, and the sting of death has been broken. -- C .F. W. Walther, *God Grant It!* pp. 366, 367
