Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Luther's Epistle Sermons, Vol. 2: Epiphany, Easter and Pentecost
Luther's interest in the work of true evangelization is seen in the name he designedly chose for the church of his followers. He did not call it Protestant nor Lutheran, but conscientiously insisted upon it being called the Evangelical, or in plain anglo-saxon, the Gospel church, the Evangelizing church. Because of Luther's emphasis on the word evangelical there are properly speaking no Lutheran, but only evangelical-lutheran churches. He is the evangelist of Protestantism in the true sense.
