planting; he expected justice, but saw bloodshed; righteousness, but heard a
cry!

and what
material it consists of.
~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Vision without action is a

already kindled! 50I have a baptism with which to be
baptized, and what stress I am under until it is completed!
51Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the
earth? No, I tell you, but rather division! ... 56You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance
