I have waited weeks before posting this next segment, mostly because I felt uneasy about it's content. I hadn't quite gotten my hands comfortably around the meat of the message. But last night, God allowed me to handle some of the truths of His Word through a work by the great theologian - Dr. Martin Luther. I had been searching for the source text for what I 'thought' was a quote by Luther, and ended up providentially coming across a compilation of writing of like-minded fellows called the Book of Concord. In it was Luther's commentary on the very subject this next segment tackles. Thank you, God.
p.s. The picture is just a silly picture of our oldest son pretending to have antlers growing out of his head. It makes me smile.
