That was a notable bold expression of Luther, Let-him that dyed for my soul, see to the salvation of it. I have committed my soul to him, I have given it up into his hands who is my life, who is my love, and let him look after it, let him take care of it, in securing of that, he secures his own ⟨p. 278⟩glory. Oh that Christians would trust in this rich Christ for a supply of necessaries. Is Christ so rich, and will you not take his word that he will not see you want? Will you trust a rich man upon his word, and will you not trust a rich 1Christ upon his word? Do you believe he will give you a Crown, and will you not trust him for a crust? Do you believe he will give you a Kingdom? and do you doubt whether he will give you a Cottage to rest in? Ha's he given you his blood? and do you think that he will deny you any thing that is really for your good? Surely he will not, he cannot.
