Forgive as We Forgive - Redwood Falls Gazette

In Luther’s Large Catechism, under the topic of a brief exhortation to confession, Martin Luther references a proverb that was common in his day, “For it is true, as the proverb says, ‘If one person is upright, so are they all’”. He says this to say that if one person acts if everything that they do is correct and without fault, so also will everyone else, especially those around them.
