Writings

To be baptized in the name of God is to be baptized not by human beings but by God Himself.

Since both the water and the Word are one Baptism, therefore body and soul must be saved and live forever.

We bring the child and pray that God may grant it faith, but we baptize solely upon the command of God.

Marriage is not an exceptional estate, but the most universal and noblest.

Since in this prayer we call God our Father, it is our duty always to deport and conduct ourselves as godly children.

If we look at mankind in all its conditions, it is nothing but a vast, wide stable full of great thieves.

Honor and good name are easily taken away, but not easily restored.

How can water, eating and drinking do such great things?

Such is nature that we all begrudge another’s having as much as we have.

Time and paper would fail me if I were to recount all the blessings that flow from God’s Word.
