About This Product
In the wise Doctor Geiler, we can see how God’s spirit was at work in hearts, even before the Reformation, preparing the way by the ministry of such godly men as he was for the more advanced teaching of Martin Luther, soon to follow. They illuminate the history of those momentous times, giving us delightful glimpses of the family life, personal feelings and trials of God’s faithful witnesses in the days before and after the life of Luther.
May we and our children profit by the reading of the four stories in this volume, knowing that the same afflictions and trials may at any hour come on us that came on our brethren at that time (1 Peter 5:9). They contain valuable moral and spiritual lessons for both old and young; in this indeed lies their chief value.
