teaching that empowers your Understanding of Christianity
What need is there of many words? If I were to recount all the profit and fruit which God's Word produces, whence would I get enough paper and time?

The Word of God is an exceedingly effectual help against the devil, the world, and the flesh and all evil thoughts to be occupied with the Word of God, and to speak of it, and meditate upon it. Undoubtedly, you will not start a stronger incense than by being engaged upon God's commandments and words, and speaking, singing, or thinking of them. This is indeed the true holy water and holy sign from which the devil flees.

For this reason alone you ought gladly to read, speak, think and treat of these things, if you had no other profit and fruit from them than that by doing so you can drive away the devil and evil thoughts. For he cannot hear or endure God's Word; and God's Word is not like some other silly prattle. Yea, indeed, the power of God which gives the devil burning pain, and strengthens, comforts, and helps us beyond measure.
