    Here's the full context of that quote: “If you are a preacher of mercy, do not preach an imaginary but the true mercy. If the mercy is true, you must therefore bear the true, not an imaginary sin. God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong...

    I've never understood that. Why not just let Scripture say what it says? It's God's Word put to ink and paper and one can easily learn and understand the context of what is written. Just take the Lord's Word at His Word. Scripture interprets Scripture.

    the meaning of Baptism

    Herr Doktor Martin Luther had an eye for detail, one must give that to him. The important bit is that children should be brought to baptism as soon as may be, to fulfill the Divine Commission to baptize every nation in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. No age restriction is...

    For Those of Us With Serious Health Issues

    That is certainly true. My weakness is a bad case of chronic cardiopulmonary disease due to nearly ten years of smoking in my youth. The manner of my death may well be on account of lung/ heart issues. Hopefully decades from now.

    What Is Sin?

    Sin is a disease we inherited from Adam and Eve. Baptism and drowning the old Adam inside all of us is the antidote. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper builds our faith and joins us physically and spiritually to our Lord. The rite of Confession and Absolution puts us back on track when we sin (...

    Message of the Reformation Still Needed Today!

    Obviously, it's not for us to " allow" or " disallow" the Creator of the Universe to do anything, but " let the Holy Spirit ( etc.)" just flowed out more easily than for me to make it into some kind of weird language contortion..

    Should Australia become a Republic?

    Uh, I'm just one United States citizen. I'm sure the other Americans would argue that the system's worked for us for 241 years and we'd ask why we ought to replace a system that had at one time seen us at superpower status.
