"We further see, the Scriptures can equip the man of God for every good work. Now, Mr. Madrid, do you not believe that it is a good work to pray to Mary? Yet, the Scriptures nowhere teach this. Do you not believe that it is good to believe and teach that Mary was bodily assumed into Heaven? Yet, the Bible does not teach this. Do you not believe that the man of God should teach, in the Church, that the pope, in Rome, is infallible in his teaching office? Yet, the Scriptures know nothing of such a concept.We see then, that the Roman position is contradicted by that of the Apostle. For he knew of no other rule of faith that was necessary so that the man of God could be equipped for every good work. No other rule of faith, that is, than the Scriptures."
Lutherans; During the time of the Reformation and for many years following, this was not the name by which we were known. We were called Evangelicals, Gospel proclaiming Christians who adhered strictly to the Bible. Over time, however, others who were not truly evangelical claimed this title for themselves, leaving us to identify ourselves as Evangelical Lutherans.
