Treasures from Luther's House Postils

 Norma A. Boeckler designed the covers and interior of Treasures from Luther's House Postils.

Janie Sullivan has the files for Treasures from Luther's House Postils. I asked her to take her time since she has just moved into a new apartment. This will yield:

1. The large format, full color collection of quotations from the household sermons of Luther;
2. A Kindle ebook version for 99 cents;
3. A free PDF of the book;
4. A merger of the three volumes of sermons and the Treasures  in a low-cost Kindle and a free PDF.

I asked my father why he made long johns with vanilla icing and regular bread donuts (circular) with the same dough and the same icing. He said, "Because people have their favorites. The more we offer, the more they like the selections."

• The Lost Dutchman's Goldmine
• Gems Mined from Luther's Sermons
• Treasures from the House Postils.

Even Jay Webber, bereft of any knowledge of Luther, solemnly announced that Luther's Galatians was "an important book." Yes, it is so important that he utterly ignored its content in his epic fail essay. In contrast, John Bunyan said the Galatians commentary was his most read book, after the Bible.

I have several projects in mind for the near future, including CFW Walther: The American Calvin. However, having a modern and inexpensive Galatians - full-sized - struck me as a priority. The public domain translations are very much in KJV English, which is no problem for me, but a barrier for many people. Also, a public domain version in plain English would be easier to translate.

Since the Gospel is the Pearl of Great Price, Matthew 13, it only seems right to collect Luther's pearls from this great book. He said his books could be burned, except for the Small Catechism and Galatians. I read every page of it to Mrs. Ichabod, and we both enjoyed it.

I said yesterday, "I don't have much in valuables, but I can offer a goldmine, gems, treasures, and pearls from Biblical, Lutheran doctrine." Mrs. Ichabod thought that was a good alternative and far more lasting.

 Travis and Lauren Cartee - Audio Gutenberg

When Travis and Lauren Cartee joined our little congregation, he sent an audio he was working on, related to Lutheran doctrine.

Mrs. Ichabod said, "What a voice!" I agreed. Travis and I began talking about the opportunities, especially because of his interest in traditional Lutheran doctrine.

He is now uploading videos to YouTube. Subscribe to Audio Gutenberg to keep up.

I suggested making this a vocation supported by those of us who appreciate this kind of work, scattering the living Seed, the Word of God.

If you do not like PayPal, you can send a check to the church address, 1104 Letha Drive, Springale, AR, 72762.

Anything designated for Audio Gutenberg will be sent to Travis and Lauren, 100%, as we do with the Bethany Lutheran Mission in the Philippines.










May God bless their work, because faith comes from hearing the Gospel spoken, Romans 10.

Mission Booklet for the Philippines and All Missions. The Bible Teaches Faith in Jesus the Savior

 The back cover, John 3:16, is designed by Norma A. Boeckler and translated by Pastor Jordan Palangyos.

Pastor Jordan Palangyos started a mission and began working on a church building, which is partially finished.

I wrote a brief booklet to be used (public domain, non-profit) and translated by anyone who wishes to have it. No permissions are needed.

 The front cover is designed by Norma A. Boeckler, and the interior is also illustrated by our artist-in-resident.

The English version The Bible Teaches Faith in Jesus the Savior is available on Amazon and Kindle.

The translated version will be printed at the mission because that is more economical. I understand the cost of the printer has already been donated.

When the rainy season is over, the mission will be able to complete their small building.

5.0 out of 5 starsJustification by Faith and how it has come to be disregarded by present-day Lutheran denominations

June 30, 2019

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Gregory L Jackson PhD is a confessional Lutheran theologian, pastor, and teacher. He received a STM degree in Biblical studies from Yale in 1973 and he earned a Master's degree and a PhD in theology at the University of Notre Dame in 1982.

Dr Jackson wrote:

“Justification has been taught in two contradictory ways. The traditional teaching has always been Justification by Faith. That is the well-know phrase used by the Holy Spirit and St Paul, repeated as the Chief Article by Luther, Melancthon, and the Book of Concord editors. ... However, the Pietists and Rationalists, ever since Halle University's F. Schleiermacher, have defined Justification as God declaring the whole world forgiven and saved, apart from faith".

In this book, Dr Jackson does the following:

1. Outlines the Biblical Lutheran principle of Justification by Faith
2. Shows how Justification by Faith has been supplanted in the Lutheran conservative denominations by the false doctrine of Universal Justification apart from Faith (known as Objective Justification). He traces the historical progression of Objective Justification from the post-Reformation period through the present day.
3. Explains how Objective Justification has produced the lack of vitality and power we see in the conservative Lutheran denominations today (ELS, LCMS, WELS).

I would recommend this book to someone who wishes to understand the principle of Justification by Faith as it is taught in the Bible, how this principle has come to be disregarded by conservative Lutheran denominations. and the effects this action has had on present-day conservative Lutheran denominations.

Dr Jackson discusses the problems of present day Christian denominations on his internet blog. Google ichabodthegloryhasdeparted for the URL. He conducts a weekly traditional Lutheran worship service via the internet, the blog has a link to the broadcast site which also has archived broadcasts.

The author's price for the print book (full color, covers and illustrations by Norma A. Boeckler) will be around $8.

The primary goal of the book is to deal with the clear, plain teaching of Justification by Faith in the Scriptures.

WELS and LCMS leaders are lying when they claim Objective Justification was their original, official teaching. In both cases, the catechetical material was purely Justification by Faith, as proven in the book. But that was slowly and craftily jettisoned in favor of the Calvinistic, Pietistic Objective Justification of Bishop Martin Stephan and his disciple CFW Walther.

Following the example of Walther as a sly, deceptive politician, his heirs have used OJ as a hammer to get rid of those who would rob them of their coveted titles, honors, and luxuries.

They do not denounce Justification by Faith. No, they scream "He denies Objective Justification!"
