THAT THESE WORDS OF CHRIST, “THIS IS MY BODY,” ETC., STILL STAND FIRM AGAINST THE FANATICS 1527

They wish first of all to change the natural words and meanings of the Scriptures into their own words and meanings; then they boast that we do not have Scripture, in order that the devil may make a laughingstock of us, or rather, may safely strangle us as defenseless enemies. Against all this, however, just one word serves exceedingly well: No! So they stand like butter in the sun. -Martin Luther
