As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I am moved with an exhausted intrepid Spirit to attempt to embark upon a necessary Christian teaching of each of you, because in these Sodom USA end times, each of you is so far into the time of the Judges, that each of you is basically a law unto yourselves in this removal of God's Law age, in you decide what you think is right and never bother to find the True boundaries to the lives God gave you.
I have before me an old Luther's Small Catechism, which is one of the monumental works of Christianity, considering Martin Luther, the real one, and not that communist Negro of America honored on a national holiday, had nothing to base this work on, but a lifetime of study of the Bible.
In this instructional manual are the teachings of Christianity, and it is my hope that over the next months some of you will be turned from your self destructive misbehaviors and the Christian will have a refresher course in what it is to be a Christian, to gain the Peace of Christ in their lives, which has now been vanquished.
This Catechism is from Missouri Synod German Lutherans. I have found that group placed into their children a healthy terror of God. They might of still sinned like satan as children, and still claim ignorance as adults, but they know the terror of God and tend to behave themselves.
I do find Luther's work discarded in the thrift store, but I never find a Missouri Synod Bible ever discarded. Catholics to Baptists throw their Bibles to the heap, but those Germans are still terrified enough to know God is watching them.
This is now where we begin, not at the beginning, but at page 31, in Martin Luther's self examination before Holy Communion. You should have had instruction in this which I hope will appear in the following weeks to understand more of this, but this is a framework of the filth of each of our lives and the reality that we need Jesus to be the Lord Who makes everything right with the Father for us, so that we can approach the Father with confidence in being accepted for who we are, not as sinners, but as Redeemed Spiritual children.
That is what each of you must keep in mind, which people on the left never come to terms with in hiding from God or Obama passing laws to legalize sinning, is that once you accept Jesus as your Savior, as the only Way, Truth and Life back to the Father, Jesus cleans off all of your failures daily, as you mould yourself to the Law of God to prove you are working at being a child of God, and that is how God only sees you as His humble child.
I am using from Archive.org the only translation I could find. It of course is another one of these "fixers" who think that Martin Luther's words were just not enough, which is in error. The basis though is there in this self examination, and is the place to start.
I put it to you this way, until the day comes that you can recite the responses by heart, as German Lutheran children could, as in my time, we memorized this Catechism, including the Bible verses, you have not invested enough time in dealing with the sinner you are.
Remember in studying this that no other people have this gift from God. If not for the Holy Ghost moving this German Martin Luther, there never would have been a United States in the foundation of their character in a hard working and moral people in the German Israelites who were all grounded in this.
I do not know if I can hold up in posting all of this, but I will try. For those who are displeased and passing over this instruction, keep on going, as there will be weeks and months of this, as whoring with the world in salacious gossip will by God's Grace take a back seat.
As a warning, you either get things right now, because the day you are dead, the course is over, and everything you have done will be reviewed, and when Jesus with the proof of your having tried to obey the !0 Commandments are not found, you will regret the days you did not invest in being a Christian.
CHRISTIAN QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. PREPARED BY DR. MARTIN LUTHER FOR THOSE WHO PURPOSE TO RECEIVE THE LORD’s SUPPER. After confession and instruction in the Ten Commandments, Creed, Lord’s Prayer, Baptism and the Lord’s Supper, the minister may further ask, or each may ask himself: 1. Do you believe that you are a sinner Yes, I believe it ; I am a sinner. 2. How did you obtain the knowledge thereof? From the 10 commandments : these I have not kept. 3. Do you feel sorrow on account of your sins? Yes, I feel sorrow for having sinned against God. 4. What have you deserved of God on account of your sins? His wrath and displeasure, temporal death and eternal damnation. Rom. 6 : 21. and 23. 5. But do you still hope to be saved ? Yes, such is my hope. 6. Whence do you derive this hope and comfort? From my blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 7. Who is Christ? The Son of God, true God and man. 8. Are there more Gods than one ? No, there is one God only, but there are three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. 9 . That has Christ done for you that you find comfort in Him ? He died for me, shedding His blood on the cross for me, for the forgiveness of my sins. Gal. 2 : 20. 2 Tim. 4 : 6-8. 10 . Did the Father also die for you He did not : for the Father is God only, and the Holy Ghost is also God only ; but the Son is true God and true man, who died for me, shedding His blood for me. 11 . How do you know this. From the holy Gospel, and from the words of the Sacrament ; and also from His body and blood in the Sacrament, which are given to me as a pledge. 2 Cor. 1 : 22.-5 : 5. Eph. 1 : 13. 14. 1 2 . What are these words ^‘Our Lord Jesus Christ, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread : and when He had given thanks. He brake it, and gave it to the dis- ciples, and said. Take, eat ; this is my body, which is given for you : this do, in remembrance of me. . After the same manner also He took the cup, when He had supped, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it : this cup is the new^ testament in my blood, which is shed for you, for the remission of sins : this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.’’ 13 . Do you then believe that the true body and blood of Christ are in the Sacrament Yes, this I believe. 14 . What induces you to believe this. The words of Christ :Take, eat ; this is my body: drink ye all of it; this is my blood.” 15 . What are we to do when you partake of his body and bloody and thus receive the pledge We should show His death (1. Cor. 11 : 26.) and the shedding of His blood, and also remember that which He taught us : ^‘This do, as oft as ye do it, in remembrance of me.'’ ^ 16 . Why should we rememher and proclaim His death ? That we might learn to believe that no creature 'was able to make satisfaction for our sins ; but that Christ, true God and man, alone was able : further, that we might learn to tremble on account of our sins, to regard them as very great, and to rejoice and find comfort in Christ alone; and that thus we might, through this faith, be saved. 17 . What was it that moved Him to die for your sins and make atonement for them f His great love to His Father and also to me and other sinners, as it is written in John 14: 31.; Rom. 5 : 11. ; Gal. 2 : 20. ; Eph. 5 : 2, 25. 1 8 . But why do you desire to receive the Sacrament. In order that I might learn to believe that Christ died for my sins, through His great love, as now stated ; and then, that 1 might learn from Him to love God and my neighbor. 19 . What should admonish and incite a Christian to receive the Sacrament of the Altar frequently On the part of God, he should be so moved both by the command of the Lord Jesus Christ, and also by His promise. In reference to himself, he should be so moved by his own spiritual burdens which oppress him, on account of which, indeed, such commandment, encouragement and promise are given. 20. But v.'hat shall such persons, do, who do not feel these hur- denSy or who do not hunger or thirst for the Sacrament? To these no better counsel can be given than, Firsts to examine whether they are not still flesh and blood, and by all means to believe all that the Scriptures say of these things in Gal. 5 : 16-21., and in Rom. 7 : 18. Secondly they should reflect whether they do not still dwell in an evil world, and also remem- ber that sins and dangers are continually found therein, as the Scriptures declare in John 15 : 18 -20 ; 16 : 7-11 ; 1 John 2: 15-17 ; 5 : 4. 5. Thirdly^ they should consider that they are ex- posed to the snare of Satan, who continually (1 l^et. 5 : 8) disturbs their inward and outward peace b,y falsehood and deadly delusions, according to the representations of the Scriptures in John 8 : 44; 16: 82: 1 Pet. 5: 8. 9; 2 Tim. 2: 26; Eph. 6: 11-16. NOTE. These questions and answers are not mere play, but are drawn up with an earnest desire to benefit young and old by the revered and pious Dr. Luther. Let each one take heed and also be in earnest in their use ; for St. Paul says to the Galatians, chapter. 6 : Be not deceived, God is not mocked !
