Our Christ comes to us

From Luther's works...

When you open the Book containing the Gospels or hear how Christ comes here or there, or how someone is brought to Him, you shall therein perceive the sermon or the Gospel through which He is coming to you, or you are being brought to Him.  For the preaching of the Gospel is nothing else than Christ coming to us, or we being brought to Him.

Quoted in "Authentic Christianity," page 76
