Puritan Board Freshman
"For all other writing is to lead the way into and point toward the Scriptures, as John the Baptist did toward Christ, saying 'He must increase, but I must decrease' [John 3:30], in order that each person may drink of the fresh spring himself, as all those fathers who wanted to accomplish something good had to do.
Neither councils, fathers, nor we, in spite of the greatest and best success possible, will do as well as the Holy Scriptures, that is as well as God Himself has done."
Martin Luther
