Kenneth Korby will preach a series of sermons on what Lutheran! be lieve, teach, and confess. Avoided Patterns According to Rev. Mr. Korby, Lutheran! have avoided both the pattern of Christianity of radical Protestantism and Roman Catholicism. Does the Lutheran church have a right to exist alongside the others, he will ask? If so, what is unique about the proclamation of the Gospel in the Lutheran church? These sermons will be of interest and value not only to Lutheran Christians, but to any one in terested in learning more about Lutheranism. Sermon Announced Sunday evening, Octobei 4, the sermons is titled: "The Right eousness of God versus the Right eousness of Self by the Law." The Rev. Mr. Korby will say that the chief problem confronting the church is that she is trying to live by a righteousness of her own, which is of the Law, but the true righteousness of God is a donation, given freely to men through Jerus Christ, through His death and resurrection, and by faith, which lays hold of this proclamation. Holy Communion will be cele brated in the morning service, at 11 a. m. The Rev. Mr. Korby will preach a sermon in prepare tion for Holy Communion: "Liv- ing in Peace with a Reconciled God."
