Concord Matters — Apology of the Augsburg Confession: Article 27. Monastic Vows, Part 2
Manage episode 456844470 series 3315048
God calls us as His baptized children to serve our neighbor in our vocations. Monasticism led people to understand that perfection is found in poverty, vows, selling possessions, chastity, and leaving their daily vocations. Perfection is not found in such outward actions, but by faith in the actions of Christ. “Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness; My beauty are, my glorious dress; Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed, With joy shall I lift up my head.” LSB 563, st. 1
Rev. Dr. Leonard Payton, pastor at St. John Lutheran Church, Forest Park, IL, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to continue our study of Monastic Vows.
