We will begin a sermon series based on the epistle readings, Romans. The series is titled, The Very Purest Gospel, which comes from Luther’s preface to the book of Romans. He wrote:
“This Epistle is really the chief part of the New Testament and the very purest Gospel, and is worthy not only that every Christian should know it word for word, by heart, but occupy himself with it every day, as the daily bread of the soul. It can never be read or pondered too much, and the more it is dealt with the more precious it becomes, and the better it tastes.”
The first lessons will be on the theme of Brought into the Gospel.
