The Roman Church suggested the possibility of convening a Free Council to allow the broader Church to address the issues at hand, but they ultimately postponed any such gathering. Luther wrote the Smalcald Articles to call their bluff and provide the simple truths of Scripture one last time. He ends his preface in prayer, seeking the Lord’s help to address false doctrine. May we do the same today!

Rev. Heath Curtis, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church, Worden, IL and Zion Lutheran Church, Carpenter, IL, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Luther’s preface to the Smalcald Articles.
