Put the Law
Out of Sight
Martin Luther
When in real anguish, a conscience should think of Christ and know absolutely nothing but Christ alone and should then exert its powers to the utmost to put the Law out of sight as far as it possibly can and to embrace nothing but the promise of Christ. To say this is, of course, easy; but to be able to do it in temptation, when the conscience deals with God, is the most difficult of all tasks.
