Luther's Small Catechism with Explanation - 1991 Edition by Martin Luther
Luther's Small Catechism should be a part of any Christian's library. Its brief, clear summaries of Scriptural teaching allow individuals and families alike to use the Small Catechism as a powerful tool and prayer book. Although Martin Luther wrote the Small Catechism in 1529, its question and answer format serves as a timeless guide book for Christians of all generations. It is easy to use and applicable to all the various callings we have in life. The Small Catechism explores the six chief parts of Christian doctrine: the Ten Commandments, the Apostles' Creed, the Lord's Prayer, the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, Confession, and the Sacrament of the Altar (The Lord's Table). It also includes helpful daily prayers, a table of duties for Christians, and a guide for Christians to use as they prepare to themselves for the Lord's Table.Martin Luther stands as one of the most significant figures in Western history. His distinction as the father of the Protestant Reformation is augmented by his innovative use of new technology (the printing press), his translation of the Christian Bible into the vernacular, and his impact upon European society. Born in 1483 to middle-class parents in Saxony, eastern Germany, he became an Augustinian monk, a priest, a professor of biblical literature, a reformer, a husband and father. He died in 1546 after having witnessed the birth of a renewal movement that would result in a profound shift in faith, politics, and society. He has been both praised and vilified for what he preached and wrote. His thought continues to influence all Christians and to animate the movement that bears his name.
