Already and Not Yet According to Martin Luther


"This life, therefore,
is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness,
not health but healing,
not rest but exercise.
We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it.
The process is not yet finished, but it is going on.
This is not the end but it is the road.
All does not yet gleam in glory but all is being purified."
