Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Although many institutions of more recent founding have fallen over the years, the holy preaching office has never ceased to exist. God has proved that the preaching office is His work, in that He has mightily protected it so that it might never be lacking in His Church. For the works of God must remain, even when the works of man must perish.—C. F. W. Walther, God Grant It!, p. 674.
