Lutheranism 101

Lutheranism 101 is a book that examines the Lutheran faith’s stance and historical legacy. Whether you are a first-generation Christian or grew up in the church, this is an indispensable book for anyone who desires to know what they believe and practice what they believe.

This book is suitable for Christians to read individually, and also for pastors to read aloud one-on-one or lead small groups. The book uses simple and concise language, citing the Bible, the Book of Coordination, and Luther’s writings. The teachings are clear and highly applicable to daily life. The content covers six main themes: God’s relationship with humanity, faith, the tools of grace, Lutheran history, holy worship, and love for one’s neighbor. Each theme addresses key issues of faith and is a common source of confusion for church members. This book provides basic teachings to help pastors respond.

The appendices contain short essays and materials that are valuable tools for understanding the faith, including church history, biblical events, messianic prophecy, Lutheran literature, Christian resources, and a glossary. This book will give you a clear and rich understanding of the Lutheran faith.

Part 4 路德會的歷史故事

中世紀路德會的起源是基於他們渴望在羅馬天主教會的教義和做法上進行改革,但是當這改革被羅馬教會拒絕後,路德會發展成為世上基督教中第四大的傳統基督教會。[審者註:本部分為美國的路德會歷史,也是台灣的路德會與信義會的來源,幫助我們追本溯源不忘本。〕

Part 5 崇拜:上帝的祝福

人們常認為,崇拜是我們為上帝或向上帝所做的事,事實卻不是這樣。在神聖服事禮拜中,上帝來到我們當中,服事我們。我們在崇拜中所做的,是領受上帝的恩典禮物和作出回應。

Part 1: The Key is in Relationships

When God created humanity, His intention was for us to have a permanent relationship. Sin destroyed that relationship. To restore our relationship with ourselves, God sent Jesus Christ to be the Savior of all mankind, accomplishing what we could never do ourselves.

Part 2: Delivering God’s Gifts

In the world, God works with power and grace for the benefit of all who receive faith. God gives authority and power to governments to establish order and peace. God establishes the church with the Word and delivers the gifts of faith, forgiveness, and eternal life within it.

Part 4: The History of Lutheranism

The origins of medieval Lutheranism were based on their desire to reform the doctrines and practices of the Roman Catholic Church. However, when this reform was rejected by the Roman Church, Lutheranism developed into the fourth largest traditional Christian church in the world. [Note: This section covers the history of Lutheranism in the United States, and is also the origin of Lutheranism and Lutheranism in Taiwan, helping us to trace our roots and not forget our origins.]

Part 5: Worship: God’s Blessing

People often think that worship is what we do for God or to God, but that’s not the case. In holy service, God comes among us and serves us. What we do in worship is receive God’s gift of grace and respond.

Part 6: The Lutheran Christian Life

As Christians, we receive all the benefits from God for our bodies and souls. Our lives are not only connected with God but also with our neighbors. The faith we receive generates active love, making believers the mouths that proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and the hands that work for the good of their neighbors.
