Lutheran Catechism

The Lutheran Catechism is a summary of Christian teachings based on the Bible, primarily used in Lutheran churches. It outlines core beliefs about God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the sacraments (baptism and communion). Written by Martin Luther in the 16th century, it serves as a guide for understanding the faith and for instructing both adults and children in Lutheran doctrine. The catechism emphasizes grace, faith, and the importance of Scripture in everyday life. It often includes prayers and explanations of the Ten Commandments, the Apostles' Creed, and the Lord's Prayer, helping believers live out their faith.
