2020-10-25-Reformation-Day.Pdf Luther’s Rose As was common practice at the time, Luther established a seal to identify himself: a cross on a heart in a rose. In a letter written in 1530, the same year the Augsburg Confession was given, Luther describes his seal in this way: Grace and peace from the Lord. As you desire to know whether my painted seal, which you sent to me, has hit the mark, I shall answer most amiably and tell you my original thoughts and reason about why my seal is a symbol of my theology. The first should be a black cross in a heart, which retains its natural color, so that I myself would be reminded that faith in the Crucified saves us. "For one who believes from the heart will be justified" (Romans 10:10). Although it is indeed a black cross, which mortifies and which should also cause pain, it leaves the heart in its natural color. It does not corrupt nature, that is, it does not kill but keeps alive. "The just shall live by faith" (Romans 1:17) but by faith in the crucified. Such a heart should stand in the middle of a white rose, to show that faith gives joy, comfort, and peace. In other words, it places the believer into a white, joyous rose, for this faith does not give peace and joy like the world gives (John 14:27). That is why the rose should be white and not red, for white is the color of the spirits and the angels (cf. Matthew 28:3; John 20:12). Such a rose should stand in a sky-blue field, symbolizing that such joy in spirit and faith is a beginning of the heavenly future joy, which begins already, but is grasped in hope, not yet revealed. And around this field is a golden ring, symbolizing that such blessedness in Heaven lasts forever and has no end. Such blessedness is exquisite, beyond all joy and goods, just as gold is the most valuable, most precious and best metal. This is my compendium theologiae [summary of theology]. I have wanted to show it to you in good friendship, hoping for your appreciation. May Christ, our beloved Lord, be with your spirit until the life hereafter. Amen. 2 Grace Lutheran Church 736 Cayuga Drive Rev. Benjamin G.

Together as His people let us take refuge in the infinite mercy of God, our heavenly Father, seeking His grace for the sake of Christ. C Before God and one another, we confess that we have sinned in thought, word, and deed, and that we cannot free ourselves from our sinful condition, and so we pray: God, be merciful to me, a sinner. Almighty God, merciful Father, have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and lead us to everlasting life. In Holy Baptism You declared us to be Your children; therefore You daily and richly forgive us our sins and grant us new life through Your Spirit. Be in our midst, enliven our faith, and graciously receive our prayer and praise; through Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. P Almighty God in His mercy has given His Son to die for you and for His sake forgives you all your sins. As a called and ordained servant of Christ, and by His authority, I therefore forgive you all your sins in the name of the Father and of the T Son and of the Holy Spirit. C Amen. 4 Luther’s Morning Prayer C I thank You, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son, that You have kept me this night from all harm and danger; and I pray that You would keep me this day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please You.

C With these words God tenderly invites us to believe that He is our true Father and that we are His true children, so that with all boldness and confidence we may ask Him as dear children ask their dear father. P Let us then pray as Christ has taught us. C Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven; give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. 7 Benediction P Let us bless the Lord. C Thanks be to God. P The Lord bless you and keep you.

  • 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.

  • The Seven Windows at Church of the Reformation, Lutheran, Affton
    EFLECTING THE UTHERAN ERITAGE TheR Seven Windows at Church of theL Reformation, Lutheran,H Affton, Missouri: by Alicia von Stamwitz; photographs by Richard Potts Shortly after Rev. David Pelsue was installed as the fourth pastor of the Church of the Reformation, Lutheran, in Affton, Missouri, he began research- ing stained glass studios in the area. He and his congregation hoped to mark the church’s 50th anniversary by commis- sioning custom windows for the north wall of the nave. “The nave of the church was clear glass,” Rev. Pelsue said, “which is a lit- tle unusual for a Lutheran church. Along the top perimeter of the church by the roofline, we do have a series of 3' x 3' windows, but those have just simple geometric patterns—rectangles and squares of plain and colored glass.” One day, when Rev. Pelsue was returning from a pastoral visit, he spot- ted Preston Art Glass Studio. He went in and looked around, and he immediately liked what he saw. He discussed his plans with Dale Preston, the owner. “Dale’s studio was a good fit. I told him what I wanted to do, he gave me his card, and that was it! The rest is histo- ry.” Even now, ten years later, Rev. Pelsue’s voice rises with excitement as he describes the process of designing the windows. He and an elder from the congregation named Mark Bliese worked with Preston Art Glass design- er Carol Wright, brainstorming and passing drawings back and forth. He wanted contemporary designs that Photographer: Richard Photographer: Potts, Richard © 2014 would blend with the church’s modern architecture and complement the exist- ing upper windows.
