Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

As it was at the creation, so it is at our regeneration.  For as at the creation of the world, the Spirit of the Lord moved upon the face of the waters and imparted to them a vital energy, so in the water of Baptism the same Holy Spirit is present to render it efficacious for our regeneration. -- Blessed Johann Gerhard, Sacred Meditation XVII
