Classic Lutheran Books Page - On Facebook

Join Classic Lutheran Books on Facebook.
We share our love for many ignored, forgotten, and previously unavailable books.

I started the Classic Lutheran Books page on Facebook, which  suddenly began adding members day after day. If you wish to add your name, let me or another CLB member know.

We already have an excellent e-book library to use - from


The e-books are free, as are these books from a growing list -

Prices Slashed 50% and More - Kindle E-Books



Kindle (Amazon) will not let me reduce Kindle e-books to zero, but most of them are now 99 cents, which is pretty close. A few larger ones are $1.99.

We are working on the 8 volumes of Luther plus the Gems on Kindle.

The next step is making as many PDFs available for free as we can - in a public Dropbox folder. Access to the folder will allow people to download whatever they want for free, share and translate the works for the same low price - free. They will all be public domain, and a statement will be there for people to use if needed. The idea is to make as many works available as possible, far into the future, at the lowest price, with no restrictions.

Public Domain, Author's Price, and Free







First of all, all my books are public domain - past, present, and future - so people may translate, copy, and reprint them without a visit from our attorney, Glen Kotten.

I am doing this because the actuaries give me 21 years to live (NML) but God only knows. The problem becomes how to make books available much longer. The UOJ Church Shrinkers ban my books so they sell their garbage - like The Truth about Luther, from Christian News and an ignorant papist bigot. Therefore, there is no profit damage.

I am going to reduce all my Kindles to 99 cents, which will make the books even easier to distribute. The print books on Amazon will also have no profit, a minor reduction in price.

The best price for printed books is always the author's price,  ordering through me. Many times extra books are provided as well.

DropBox Public Folder
Everything will go into the public folder in DropBox, which means anyone can download - whether they have DB or not. I suggest getting the free version to make it easier to store them and save other documents.

I will look into obtaining all the old books in their final form so they can be ebooks in the public folder. There will be no limit in sharing them, copying them, using them in various forms. Since they are public domain now, use them as desired, noting their origin.

Coming Soon



We must stretch forth our hands in faith; and as God through love is the Giver, so we must through faith in Christ be the receivers of His gift. We must believe what our text tells us, that God is kind and merciful and that He manifests His love toward us in sending His only begotten Son into our flesh and blood, to take upon Himself our sins, as John the Baptist and the prophet Isaiah declare: “This is the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world.”
With such a gift, and assured of the love of God, we can stay our hearts against the assaults of sin and the accusations of our conscience; for we know that He is not wroth nor terrible, but that for Christ’s sake He is kind and gracious unto us. Whoever believes this is truly happy and blessed, for this gift is so great and powerful that it crushes sin, death and every evil.
—Luther. House Postil Vol. 2. “Whitmonday. John 3:16-21.”
Some Publishing News
John's Gospel of Faith is 99.9% finished, should be OKed today or tomorrow.
  1. All my books will be public domain and non-profit, aimed at increasing distribution. Amazon is still too high so order from me at the author's price.
  2. I can drop Kindle versions to 99 cents, so I will be doing that.
  3. Someone just ordered 50 Gems in black and white to give to people, at my cost - $150. Amazon retail cost - around $400.
  4. For individual gifts, Gems in color is about $11 each. Everyone loves it because it is the best of Luther's best, from Lenker's edition.
  5. Three volumes of House Postils are next.
  6. Calvin Ruined the Protestant Faith follows, now being written. 
  7. The Ichabod Lutheran Dictionary is being formulated.
  8. I am thinking of one volume of Justification by Faith exegesis, which is the best counter-battery attack on UOJ.
  9. Two other volumes like John's Gospel of Faith would be about Mark's Gospel and Paul's Letter to the Galatians.
 The Student Edition is handy and inexpensive to introduce a lot of people to Luther. The color version is ideal for gifts to special people. Why not get some for your pastors and teachers? - it will shed a lot of light on what they have been doing or not doing.
