“In heaven, before God, vocation has as little to contribute as do good works. Good works and vocation (love) exist for the earth and one’s neighbor, not for eternity and God. God does not need our good works, but our neighbor does. It is faith that God wants.”

Wingren's "Man and the Incarnation" is a superb work, not only in opening the crucial work of Irenaeus, but in providing a rich understanding of the key theological themes of Creation, Fall and Redemption.
