Abstract

Dr. C. F. W. Walther meant much to his generation. Shortly after his death Dr. F. W. Stellhom wrote: "The Lutheran Church of our country, yea, I may say, of this whole century, owes more to Dr. Walther than to any other single person.'' (Lutherische Kirchenzeitung, June 1, 1887.) The fifty years that have elapsed since his last illness ended his work at the Seminary, on November 3, 1886, have not diminished his influence among us. We have been living on his theology. And the present generation cannot afford to dispense with it. There is a great blessing in store for those who make Dr. Walther's theology their own.
