Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Confessional Principle and the Confessions of the Lutheran Church, as Embodying the Evangelical Confession of the Christian Church The Church of the Lutheran Reformation has wrought in America for well-nigh three centuries, and will in a few years be adding one more century to its history. Her value in this land de pends upon her fidelity to her Confession. If her Confession is out of date, she herself is but an obsolete barrier in the pathway to a common development, and deserves to disappear into the com mon and indeterminate Protestantism of her American environment.

Book excerpt: Gassmann and Hendrix expertly present the historical context for the Reformation in its beginnings and development as background to the emergence and gathering of the Confessions.

Download or read book Book of Harmony written by Martin J. Lohrmann and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reformation-era writings that make up the Lutheran Confessions remain lively resources for Christian ministry and mission today. Because each of the documents within the Book of Concord was written with a specific context and rhetorical purpose in mind, each has its own compelling story and objectives. Luther’s catechisms present the faith for daily life at the grass-roots level, with teaching elements that we might now view as typical of social media and multimedia. The Augsburg Confession and its Apology provide an adaptable foundation for preaching, teaching, church organization, and dialogue that is rooted in the promise of Christ, received through faith. Fifteen years after the Diet of Worms, the Smalcald Articles reveal yet another “Here I stand” moment for Luther. Finally, the Formula of Concord shows how the next generations of Lutherans used collaboration and consensus as they wrestled with important themes of faith and life. In summary, as these texts engage us with their stories, they invite us to consider what is most important about our journeys of faith and Christian witness in today’s twenty-first-century contexts.
