The epistles of James, Peter, Jude, and John are commonly called the catholic or general epistles because they were addressed to the church at large rather than to a particular individual or group. This volume contains Luther's expository sermons on 1 Peter, 2 Peter, and Jude, and includes Jakob Propst's compact transcript of the Reformer's lectures on the First Epistle of John. In these sermons and lectures Luther stresses the lasting importance of loyalty to the Word of God, faith in Christ and love for God and one's neighbor.
