Scriptural Disputes Settled According to Catechism

This is marvelous background to the Formula of Concord and applying it to today's polarity over equally sounding Scriptural proofs. Having purchased this early on in seminary, and never reading all of it, was inspired just recently by study group on Formula. Background had this as major contributor, however, Chemnitz and gang resolved that sermon format was not the best, so rewritten. What is attractive and solid about these six sermons on controverted doctrine is his reference to Luther's Small Catechism for the answer to finding out how to discern equally sounding controverted positions. Before someone objects to Catechism being over Scripture, one must realize what Catecism is: Asks question, then answers from Scripture. This is solid and enlighenting and pertinent to today's controverted issues.
