From Justin´s Sermon: "And in understanding the power of transformational love, Martin Luther read in this parable that it´s Christ, who is the true Samaritan and has shown his love toward God and neighbor by taking the poor man to himself as his own; going to him uninvitedly, and not requiring the helpless one to come to him; for here is no merit, but pure grace and mercy; and he binds up the man´s wounds, cares for him and pours in oil and wine, lifting him up and restoring him, this is the whole Gospel from beginning to end. In short, he did no work that centered on himself alone, but all his acts centered on his neighbor."
