Martin Luther Quotes
[Re: Rom 10:2] It Is Commonly Said: "The Intention Is Good, And The Purpose Is True, But The Means Are Misused." The Goal Which They Seek Is Correct; But The Way Is Wrong By Which They Endeavor To Reach The Goal. They Want To Go East And Instead They Are Going West. The Arrogant Zeal Of Good Intentions Does The Same Today. The Apostle Expresses Himself Very Mildly When He Says "not According To Knowledge." He Wishes This To Be Understood In The Sense That They Set About With Blind Zeal, Unwise Urgency, And Foolish Purpose. That Is The Greatest Danger; And It Should Serve Us As An Example That We May Speak Of The Faults Of The Neighbor With Mildness.
