by Martin Luther 1483 - 1546
The Kingdom is to be in the midst of your enemies.
And he who will not suffer this does not want to be of the Kingdom of Christ; he wants to be among friends, to sit among roses and lilies, not with the 'bad people' but the devout people.
O you blasphemers and betrayers of Christ! If Christ had done what you are doing, who would ever have been spared?
He lays a table for me in the presence of my enemies

The husbandman let the wheat and the tares grow together...
