“Prepare the way of the Lord.” Luther says of this preparing: “Such preparation is spiritual; it consists in the deep conviction and confession that you are unfit, a sinner, poor, damned, and miserable with all the works you are able to do. Where this conviction is wrought, the heart will be opened for the Lord’s entrance with his forgiveness and gifts.”

Thanks for the sermon pastor Charles. I really like the above part from Luther.

I do too; that's why I included it. :-) Luther really captured the main thought of the text in just two sentences.
