About "Three Hierarchies"
- Martin Luther, On the Councils and the Church, 1539.
- View My Profile
Psalm 127 says that there are only two temporal governments on earth, that of the city and that of the home, "€œUnless the Lord builds the house; unless the Lord watches over the city."€� The first government is that of the home, from which the people come; the second is that of the city, meaning the country, the people, princes and lords, which we call the secular government. These embrace everything - - children, property, money, animals, etc. The home must produce, whereas the city must guard, protect, and defend. Then follows the third, God's own home and city, that is, the church, which must obtain people from the home and protection and defense from the city. These are the three hierarchies ordained by God, and we need no more . . .
