To: Salvation
During the lifetime of the Church, nations have risen and fallen, empires have come and gone, errors and heresies have flourished and then withered. Where is Caesar now? Where is Napoleon? Where is the USSR? They are all gone; we are still here preaching the Gospel and celebrating the sacraments. We have read the funeral rites over all who said they would bury us. Yes, we have endured their wrath, sat in their prisons, heard their threats, been hauled into their courts, and even been killed by them; but the Church is here and they are gone. One by one all things are put under Christ’s feet.

Yes.

Satan is still here, and still transformed into an angel of light, and his ministers still as ministers of righteousness.

oh, so powerful a statement ... and that thought should carry each of us through our own perils, however huge they appear in our lives.
