The everlasting righteousness 12+

🔖 It was not Luther merely who took up the old watchword, ""The just shall live by faith,"" and thus found the answer of a good conscience toward God. To thousands of hearts it came like a voice from heaven, they knew not how. Sunshine from above had fallen upon one grand text; the text which the age needed: men recognized the truth thussupernaturally lighted up. ""The nations came to its light, and kings tothe brightness of its rising."" The inquiring men of that age, though notborrowing from each other, betook themselves to this truth and text.From every kingdom of Europe came the same voice; and every Protestant Confession bore witness to the unanimity of awakened Christendom.
