Concerning The Word
Remark: The
difference between the Lutheran and Reformed confession begins
already in the doctrine concerning the Word. The Reformed
confession makes it a mere guide to eternal life; but the
Lutheran confession, in accordance with the Scripture, a real
means of grace, which not only shows where to get the
treasure, but also imparts it; for it is a power unto
salvation (Rom. 1:16), a seed of regeneration (1 Pet. 1:23),
full of Spirit and life (John 6:63).
