Question of the Week! Every now and then I will post a question on the blog that will serve as the homework for the 7th grade class. You can post your answer on the blog by posting a comment or you can write it down and bring it to class.
Here it is:
Luther's explanation to the first article of the creed lists every way that God provides for his people. Since God graciously provides for us "out of pure, fatherly, divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me". What do you think Luther means when he says that God the Father gives us all that we we need without any merit or worthiness in us? Do you think God gives us food, clothing, and shelter because he is all powerful or because he is merciful?
