CONCERNING GOD

"Our Father, who art in Heaven.
_What meaneth these words_?

God lovingly inviteth us, in this little preface, truly to
believe in Him, that He is our true Father, and that we are
truly His children; so that full of confidence we may more
boldly call upon His name, even as we see children with a kind
of confidence ask anything of their parents."--LUTHER'S
CATECHISM.
