The Smalcald Articles – Part II, Article IV: The Papacy and the Headship of Christ

Episode Description

In this episode, I read Article IV of Part II of the Smalcald Articles, written by Dr. Martin Luther in 1537.

Here Luther addresses the Papacy directly and unapologetically—not as a political dispute, but as a matter of the Gospel itself. At stake is the question: Who is the true Head of the Church? Christ alone, or a human office claiming divine authority?

This article speaks with clarity about conscience, authority, and the freedom of the Christian under Christ’s Word.

If this teaching strengthens you, consider supporting the charitable work connected to this ministry. Confessing Christ and loving our neighbor belong together.

Soli Deo Gloria.
