• The Large Catechism: The Apostles’ Creed: 2nd Article

  Jesus Christ is Lord. To be Lord is to redeem sinners from the devil, death, and all evil. We commonly hear the question, “Is Jesus your Savior AND your Lord?” Luther makes sure that we do not distinguish between Jesus’ salvation and His lordship but helps us realize that He is the full meal deal of forgiveness, life, and salvation. Jesus is our Savior and our Lord. He has made us His own, and we follow Him as He governs us by His righteousness, wisdom, power, life, and blessedness. Rev. Dr. Jason Lane, Associate Professor of Historical Theology, Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, MO, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the 2nd Article of the Apostles’ Creed.

• The Large Catechism: The Apostles’ Creed: 1st Article

  God the Father created heaven and earth; nothing and no one else is equal to Him. He constantly preserves us in all that we need to support this body and life. We humbly receive all that He gives and remember that He protects us from evil out Fatherly goodness and mercy. “Lord God, open our eyes that, in faith, we may remember that all we possess is a gift from You and give thanks for your goodness. Help us to steward your gifts so that all our doings and life may be pleasing to You. Lord have mercy. Amen.” Rev. Peter Schmidt, pastor of Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church, Waukesha, WI, joins Rev.

• The Large Catechism: The Apostles’ Creed: Introduction

  The Creed confesses the truth of who God is (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and what He does (creates, redeems, and sanctifies). We can know the Lord fully (Ephesians 3:19) through the Creed, which provides a foundation that unites all Christians in the truth of Scripture. We see how we will receive power to fulfill these commands—only by God’s grace. We assert what God has provided in Scripture and leave what is not said to Him. Rev. Dr. Jason Lane, Associate Professor of Historical Theology at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, MO, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to introduce our study of the Apostles’ Creed.

• The Large Catechism: The Commandments: Conclusion

  The 10 Commandments are a true guide for believers in living according to God’s will as people redeemed by Christ. Luther warns against “self-made” commandments and instead uplifts the holiness of ordinary vocations. To fear and love God means more than awe or dread—it is recognizing that He is God and we are not! The Lord is a jealous God—One who desires all of us to be with Him. He provides us with the 10 Commandments to demonstrate that He has laid claim to us, both for our protection, and to teach us how to glorify His name in word and deed. Rev. John Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Mission, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, IN, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to discuss the Conclusion of the Ten Commandments in Luther’s Large Catechism. To learn more about Concordia Theological Seminary, visit ctsfw.edu.

• The Large Catechism: 9th and 10th Commandments

  The LORD gets right to the heart of the issues of stealing, adultery, and a whole slew of sins: coveting. Human instinct is to ensure that no one will have as much or more than me. Luther exhorts us to not only repent of these covetous thoughts, but to assist our neighbor in protecting and caring for his possessions. We see this commandment most often broken during disputes over inheritances and possessions. The heart always desires more, and if we can acquire said possessions in ways that the world sees as “fine,” we can easily justify our actions instead of making sure we protect and enable our neighbor to keep what is his. “Lord have mercy and help us to serve others and give thanks for what You have given us. Amen.” Rev. John Zimmerman, pastor at Immanuel Lutheran Church, Scranton, PA and St. John Lutheran Church, Pittston, PA, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the 9th and 10th commandments as confessed in Luther’s Large Catechism.
