Therefore the Law serves a most necessary purpose, and it must not be removed from its place.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

With an abstract idea it is possible to enter into a relation of formal knowledge, to become enthusiastic about it, and perhaps even to put it into practice; but it can never be followed in personal obedience.
