![Thus, the most precious treasure and the strongest consolation we
Christians have is this: that the Word, the true and natural Son of God
became human, with flesh and blood like that of any other human; that
God became incarnate for our sakes in order that we might enter into great
glory, that our flesh and blood, skin and hair, hands and feet, stomach and
back might reside in heaven as God does, and in order that we might boldly
defy the devil and whatever else assails us. We are convinced that all our
members belong in heaven as heirs of heaven's realm.

![If, as was said before, you cannot believe, you should ask God for faith.But this too rests entirely in the hands of God who gives faith sometimes openly, sometimes in secret…. If you wish to rouse yourself to faith, first of all, you should no longer contemplate the suffering of Christ (for this has already done its work and terrified you). Instead, pass through that and see Christ’s friendly heart and how full of love it is toward you that it impels him to carry with heaviness your conscience and your sin. Then your heart will be sweet toward him, and the confidence of faith will be strengthened. Now go further and rise through Christ’s heart to God’s heart…. There you will find the divine, good, fatherly heart, and, as Christ says [John 6:44], you will be drawn to the Father through him. Then you will understand the words of Christ [John 3:16], “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son....” That is, we know God properly when we grasp God not in God’s power or wisdom (which is terrifying), but in God’s kindness and love. Then faith and confidence are able to exist, and then a person is truly born anew in God.
(Martin Luther, “Sermon on the Meditation of Christ’s Passion, TAL 1:176-177)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ltjxjmg67wl6twga2e5fjald/bafkreiewty4ptzpoprgr2gehqeq3o2i3wvzc3ggc2z6f63vskxxubucgvq)
