we are brittle

“Therefore, in respect of us the article of justification by faith in Christ alone, is very brittle, because we are brittle. Again we have against us one-half of ourselves: that is to say, the flesh and all the powers thereof. The flesh resisteth the spirit which cannot believe that all the promises of God are assuredly true. It fighteth against the spirit,” -Martin Luther in his commentary of Galatians 1:11-12

I haven’t read much Luther but am deeply thankful for this time in his commentary on Galatians.
