The little work which is hereby introduced to the English-speaking portion of our church, is a classic in Lutheran Theology. I ts author, Dr. Leonard Hutter. Professor at Wittenberg from 1596 until his death in 1616, was the most prominent theologian of his age. As a teacher, the church owes to him a debt of lasting gratitude for the direction which his instructions gave to the mind of Dr. John Gerhard, the most eminent of Lutheran theologians. As a devotional writer, he published an Epitome of the Bible, and Meditations on the Cross of Christ. But it was as an ardent supporter, and zealous champion of our faith, that he was especially distinguished. As such, in his Concordia Concors, he defended the Eorm of Concord against the Concordia Discors of Hospinian; in his Calvinista A ulico-politiciis, contended for Christian libertj, in opposition to the edict of the Elector John Sigismund, which prohibited the teaching of certain Lutheran doctrines within the Electorate of Brandenburg; and in quite a number of books, dissertations, and tracts, attacked and refuted Romanism.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This insightful text details the history and fundamental principles of the Christian faith across 34 chapters. The book eloquently summarizes the Lutheran view of the Bible, emphasizing its inerrancy, authority, and the ultimate interpretive authority of Scripture - not the church. The author examines the nature of God, the Trinity, and the divine and human natures of Christ, exploring the attributes and significance of each. The work also explores the core concepts of creation, sin, and free will, and carefully examines the relationship between law and gospel. The book includes discussions of justification, the role of faith versus good works, and the significance of the sacraments. This book is a treasure-trove of insights into the Lutheran tradition's interpretation of the Bible and its teachings on the central tenets of the Christian faith.
