CELEBRATING THE SAINTS III
"The saints of old who lived & died by faith in the promises of God are set forth as the evidence of His grace & faithfulness. We are encouraged & strengthened in our own faith & life by their example, & we join them in fixing our hope on Christ Jesus (Heb. 12:1-2). Their witness also demonstrates the intimate connection between faith & the cross, so that not only works of love, but also persecution, suffering & death, are remembered & extolled as the fruits of faith." --Richard Stuckwisch, The Lutheran Witness, Oct. 2019
