  1. Martin Luther basically says every Christian hosts a daily argument between “Old Adam” and a conscience trained by Scripture. One wants holiness; the other wants snacks, shortcuts, and another pint. True faith trains the heart to praise Christ, serve neighbors, and stop cheating people. Beer optional. Moses still teaching.

  2. Luther, peering at Psalm 14, says the real atheist isn’t the loud one but the numb one: the person who neither expects good from God nor seeks Him, and so grows hard, joyless, and oddly hostile—more inclined to wound than to help.

    Now, if you look around and see people campaigning against kindness itself, that doesn’t exactly refute Luther.

    So—how do you actually dwell on God’s goodness until it softens you?
