To Nicolas Hausmann letter 29 - Martin Luther

TO NICOLAS HAUSMANN Letter of congratulation. November 17, 1534.

To my brother, Herr N. Hausmann, grace and peace! We are almost beside ourselves with joy at God’s goodness in bestowing a son and heir upon the best of princes. Pray give him our warmest congratu- lations, and assure him that we pray that God, who has given him this blessing, may perfect it to His honour and for the welfare of the land. God grant this. There is nothing new in regard to the new king in Munster and his apostles, whom he sent to Susat, of whom eight have been beheaded. In North Germany there seems a movement against the Imperial ban, which the Supreme Court is about to declare against the Zwinglian towns. I trust they are not aiming at us. Christ reigns and cares for us. Amen. I commit you to Him.

Pray for me too. Tuesday after St. Martin’s Day. MARTIN LUTHER . (Schutze.)
