Know This

"Therefore if Christ appear in the likeness of an angry judge, or of a lawgiver, that requireth a strict account of our life past, then let us assure ourselves that it is not Christ, but a raging fiend.  For Scripture setteth forth Christ to be our reconciliation, our advocate, our comforter.  Such a one He ever is, and ever shall be.  He cannot be unlike Himself."

-- Martin Luther, Commentary on Galatians, Ch. 5, v. 2
