“This life is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness; not health, but healing; not being, but becoming, 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 goal; all does not yet gleam with glory, but all is being purified.”
Luther (from: John Theodore Mueller, Christian Dogmatics (1934), p. 389):
