These things are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name (John 20:31).
My husband and I were privileged to accompany an LWML group to Germany in 2016. Being in Germany, at the very places where Luther lived, brought me to tears more than once. An especially moving experience came at the Augustinian Monastery in Erfurt. Seeing Luther’s “cell,” where he beat himself and laid prostrate on the floor to “please God,” really upset me. The fact that he (and many others) did not know of Jesus’ love and forgiveness is so sad. God led Luther to change this and to tell Biblical truths to all. This IS the mission of the LWML.
TO GOD BE ALL GLORY AND PRAISE!
