So that this treasure might not stay buried, but be Nicene Creeds are shorter than the Second Articles (Christ) received and enjoyed, God has caused the Word to go (LSB, p. 322–23). The focus of Lutheran preaching is Christ forth and be proclaimed (LC II 38). and His salvation of man, not the works of the Holy Spirit shown in our own works. What frequently is overlooked The task of the Holy Spirit is to sanctify us by revealing and is that whenever we speak of the Church of all believers, delivering Christ with His blessings to sinners. Our prayers we speak of the Holy Spirit. Without the work of the Holy rarely are to the Holy Spirit. Yet, in today’s hymn, we do Spirit, no one could be saved.

  • Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule
    1 April 2020 Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule The disciples were afraid. How could they not be! They were in a small boat that was sinking because of a brutal storm. The wind was howling and the waves were crashing and filling the boat! On top of this, Jesus was asleep in the stern! Did he not care? How could he sleep? “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” “Peace! Be still!” After the calm registered in the eyes and minds of the terrified disciples, Jesus said, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” (Mk. 4:35-41). This was not the only time that anxiety, or fear, visited the disciples. The Bible is filled with many others who feared greatly for their lives, feared that God had forsaken them, feared that they were doomed. Read the Psalms! It seems that anxiety sprang upon the earth the moment Adam crunched his teeth into the forbidden fruit. “I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself” (Gen. 3:10). Adam was right to be afraid of God in his sin, but with the promise of the seed of the woman, the Christ, anxiety was not to be his Lord, nor ours! How many times in the Bible does God say, “Do not fear,” or some variation? A lot! This is his declaration that he is Lord over all, including anxiety. Anxiety has paid us a visit again. The pandemic opened the door. For some, anxiety is more of an obnoxious house guest than for others.

  • Explanation of the Lutheran Liturgy Based on LSB Divine Service I
    Explanation of the Lutheran Liturgy Based on LSB Divine Service I Prelude . Lighting of the Candles Greeting . Significance of the Day The Divine Service begins with the Hymn of Invocation (or the Processional Hymn, if there is a Procession), which helps set the tone and mood for the worship service, reminding us early on of God's great love through Jesus our Savior. Already, with the Prelude, the organist is directing our attention to the fact that in worship, "heaven touches earth," just as God's Word declares through the Virgin Mary in Luke 1:68: "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people." Hymn of Invocation: CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION Congregation shall stand The service continues as we invoke the name of the Triune God, put upon us by Jesus' command in our Baptism (Matthew 28:19) - the name in which we gather. St. Paul captures the eternal significance of our Baptism into Christ when he writes: "as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ" (Galatians 3:27). The sign of the cross may be made as a visible reminder of our Baptism. The congregation responds by saying, "Amen," which means "so let it be!” P In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. C Amen. The Exhortation is an invitation to confession. The inspired words of the Apostle John remind us that God is "faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:8-9).

  • The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-Flat Major (BWV 243A)*
    The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-flat Major (BWV 243a)* By Robert M. Cammarota Apart from changes in tonality and instrumentation, the two versions of J. S. Bach's Magnificat differ from each other mainly in the presence offour Christmas interpolations in the earlier E-flat major setting (BWV 243a).' These include newly composed settings of the first strophe of Luther's lied "Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her" (1539); the last four verses of "Freut euch und jubiliert," a celebrated lied whose origin is unknown; "Gloria in excelsis Deo" (Luke 2:14); and the last four verses and Alleluia of "Virga Jesse floruit," attributed to Paul Eber (1570).2 The custom of troping the Magnificat at vespers on major feasts, particu­ larly Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost, was cultivated in German-speaking lands of central and eastern Europe from the 14th through the 17th centu­ ries; it continued to be observed in Leipzig during the first quarter of the 18th century. The procedure involved the interpolation of hymns and popu­ lar songs (lieder) appropriate to the feast into a polyphonic or, later, a con­ certed setting of the Magnificat. The texts of these interpolations were in Latin, German, or macaronic Latin-German. Although the origin oftroping the Magnificat is unknown, the practice has been traced back to the mid-14th century. The earliest examples of Magnifi­ cat tropes occur in the Seckauer Cantional of 1345.' These include "Magnifi­ cat Pater ingenitus a quo sunt omnia" and "Magnificat Stella nova radiat. "4 Both are designated for the Feast of the Nativity.' The tropes to the Magnificat were known by different names during the 16th, 17th, and early 18th centuries.

  • Dating the Reformation
    The Protestant Reformation was the 16th-century religious, political, intellectual and cultural upheaval that splintered Catholic Europe, setting in place the structures and beliefs that would define the continent in the modern era. In northern and central Europe, reformers like Martin Luther, John Calvin and Henry VIII challenged papal authority and questioned the Catholic Church’s ability to define Christian practice. They argued for a religious and political redistribution of power into the hands of Bible- and pamphlet-reading pastors and princes. The disruption triggered wars, persecutions and the so-called Counter-Reformation, the Catholic Church’s delayed but forceful response to the Protestants. DATING THE REFORMATION Historians usually date the start of the Protestant Reformation to the 1517 publication of Martin Luther’s “95 Theses.” Its ending can be placed anywhere from the 1555 Peace of Augsburg, which allowed for the coexistence of Catholicism and Lutheranism in Germany, to the 1648 Treaty of Westphalia, which ended the Thirty Years’ War. The key ideas of the Reformation—a call to purify the church and a belief that the Bible, not tradition, should be the sole source of spiritual authority—were not themselves novel. However, Luther and the other reformers became the first to skillfully use the power of the printing press to give their ideas a wide audience. 1 Did You Know? No reformer was more adept than Martin Luther at using the power of the press to spread his ideas. Between 1518 and 1525, Luther published more works than the next 17 most prolific reformers combined. THE REFORMATION: GERMANY AND LUTHERANISM Martin Luther (1483-1546) was an Augustinian monk and university lecturer in Wittenberg when he composed his “95 Theses,” which protested the pope’s sale of reprieves from penance, or indulgences.
