To Martin Gorlitz, Superintendent in Brunswick - Martin Luther

TO MARTIN GORLITZ, SUPERINTENDENT IN BRUNSWICK. January 3, 1352.

Grace and peace! I have already written to you, my Martin, that I thought of calling you elsewhere. I now do so in the name of the Lord. So set yourself free as soon as you can. You are expected at the living of Kalen near Jena, which is without a pastor at present. If this do not please you, then we shall exchange it for that of Belger, or some other. Excuse my brevity, but I have much to do. Perhaps Brunswick is unworthy of the pure word, and wishes to imitate Muhlhausen and Zurich. God forbid. Amen.

Carlstadt has succeeded Zwingli in Zurich, whom they now declare to be one of Christ’s martyrs, that they may fill up the measure of their iniquities. May you prosper in Christ. MARTIN LUTHER . (Schutze.)
