For Altar and For Hearth Lutheran Wisdom for Church and Home

Purity

1915 Hans Kollar Moussa The Northwestern Lutheran

A Referendum on Amusements

The one way to wean man of his love for the lustful things of the world is to make him love Christ more. That is done by showing him in the Gospel what Christ has done for him. This is not our Lutheran way of preaching license, but it is the divine way of making better men and women.

1922 Walter A. Maier Walther League Messenger

Personal Purity

The earnest and repeated prayers of any Christian young man or young woman for a pure heart and for strength to withstand temptations will never remain unanswered by our God, who has promised never to permit us to be confronted with temptations which we cannot withstand.
