On Oct. 31, 1517, Martin Luther nailed “Ninety-five Theses” to the Wittenberg Castle Church door, the date that Lutherans observe as Reformation Day, is also the eve of All Saints Day (All Hallows Day), commonly known in today’s culture as Halloween.
This Sunday, Holy Trinity will celebrate ALL who walk faithfully in the footsteps of Christ. Some, having completed their kingdom work, now live in glory. We, still doing kingdom work, live in the cross. As we hear the bell tolls and the names of some of those who left us this year, please offer thanks to God for their witness … and the witness of ALL THE SAINTS.
