Abstract

Luther and his faithful colaborers in the work of Reformation owed their success, next to the grace of God, to the fact that they used the only means whereby a reformation of the Church could possibly be effected, the preaching of the pure and unadulterated Word of God in simple, straightforward manner. The simple truths of the Catechism, those basic facts laid down in the Ten Commandments, the Creed, and the Lord's Prayer, were reintroduced by these men of God into church and home and school.
