Product Description: Die EvangelischLutherische Kirche die wahre sichtbare Kirche Gottes auf Erden by C. F. W. Walther. This book is a reproduction of the original book published in 1867 and may have some imperfections such as marks or hand-written notes.

About This Volume Walther's sermons reflect not only the importance of Walther as leading theologian of The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod in the first decades of its existence but also his extraordinary gifts as a preacher. Now in English, Walther s sermons will give readers today a peek into the powerful preaching of the first president of the LCMS. The sermons are printed unchanged as to content and form. They originate from the author s almost 30-year activity as pastor of the first German Ev. Lutheran (Joint) congregation of the Unaltered Augsburg Confession in this country, which for some time past consists of four areas with four churches: Trinity, Immanuel, Zion, and Cross Churches. People who read these sermons will experience the explanation of God s Word by C. F. W. Walther and lead people to the insight that they are as Christians a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His [God s] own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9). This was the bible verse Walther put on one of the first pages of the German edition of his Gospel sermons. This also should be the motto of this volume.
