Wilson's Favorite Luther Quote EVER
"So it is not all in keeping with the New Testament to write books on Christian doctrine. Rather in all places there should be fine, goodly, learned, spiritual, diligent preachers without books, who extract the living Word from the old Scripture and unceasingly inculcate it into the people, just as the Apostles did. For before they wrote, they first of all preached to the people by word of mouth and converted them."
From "The Gospel for the Festival of the Epiphany," 1522
