To Nicolas von Amsdorf letter 8 - Martin Luther

TO NICOLAS AMSDORF

Luther hears that Amsdoff is not satisfied with his post. August 1, 1529.

Grace and peace! Although you have not complained to me, my Amsdorf, I hear how little you have benefited from the promotion you have received from the Prince. But be steadfast. The Lord will make an end of the trouble. The Court is the devil’s seat. If things do not improve I shall support you by word and deed, so that you may leave Zwickau, and shake its dust from off your feet — you and Cordatus also. I shall consider Paul’s affairs; meantime put up with all, showing yourselves men among those troublesome people. You did not leave Cellarius’s notes on Isaiah here. I searched everywhere, and found nothing. Perhaps he will pass your way and visit you. Pray to Christ for me, a poor sinner.

Kathie sends friendly greeting. MARTIN LUTHER .
