Luther and Lewis

If it were our strength and power with which we resist our enemies, we should have the glory and not Christ. But experience teaches us that we are not such as can help themselves, but God must do it. Thus God is glorified in our infirmity.—Martin Luther, Sermons Jn vi-viii.

It is no good asking for a simple religion. After all, real things are not simple. They look simple, but they are not.—C. S. Lewis, Business of Heaven, p. 257.
