Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Christ was not subjected to the Law because of His Person, especially since He was the Lord of the Law according to His divine nature. Also, according to His human nature - conceived without sin by the Holy Spirit - He was born without sin. The fact that He subjugated Himself under the Law through circumcision was done by Him for our sake, so that He might therewith redeem us from the Law. - Johann Gerhard, Sermon upon the Circumcision of Christ (Postilla, p. 124)
