A Word from Pastor Schielke

9/13/2021

Having received Absolution, the congregation moves from the time of preparation to that part of the Divine Service known as “the service of the Word.” We typically begin the service of the Word with an introit or Psalm. 

The word “introit” means “entrance” or “beginning.” As Christians moved from a persecuted minority to the official majority, they also moved from having worship in someone’s home to larger basilicas. This provided the opportunity to adorn the service with liturgical details that would not have been possible in a cramped home church.

The Augsburg Confession

Below are the nineteenth and twentieth articles of the Augsburg Confession. These are what we believe and confess as a Lutheran congregation. When they say “they teach,” they mean our churches teach. 
Article XIX - Of the Cause of Sin 
Of the Cause of Sin they teach that, although God does create and preserve nature, yet the cause of sin is the will of the wicked, that is, of the devil and ungodly men; which will, unaided of God, turns itself from God, as Christ says in John 8:44: When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own.
