Luther felt the Pope was on his side in this matter, and never dreamed that this would bring a reformation in the Church that would overthrow the pope in Germany.

 About the ELCG's rose symbol
Designed by Martin Luther, the Luther Coat of Arms (pictured at right) has become the world-wide symbol of the Church of the Augsburg Confession, commonly known as the Lutheran Church.
The symbol we use for the ELCG was created by member Edwin Hassink (also designer for this website) and was inspired by the Luther rose.
The re-interpretation of the symbolism Luther wanted to express, combined with the particularities of our congregation, made him come up with a rose created by people figures joining around the altar table; people holding hands, creating a circle, passing the bread and wine to each other; people almost dancing, joyfully celebrating in and around communion.

At moments there is a hermeneutic circle at work: the small parts of the whole only making sense when the whole is understood, but the whole only making sense when the meaning of the parts is explicated.
