New Lutheran Quote of the Day

The new Israel of God, reflecting the corporate character of the old Israel, is a living organism, pulsing with the life made ours by Christ. Into this body, represented in all its fullness of saving grace by this local congregation, one is incorporated by Baptism. -- Ernest Koenker, *Worship in Word and Sacrament* pp. 38, 39
