Walther, Carl Ferdinand Wilhelm Theologians People Lutheran
Carl Ferdinand Wilhelm Walther (1811-1887) was a Saxon who came to the United States with Martin Stefan and a group of Lutherans who feared that the Prussian Union of 1815 would spread and force them into altar and pulpit fellowship and full communion with Calvinist (Reformed) churches in Germany. He was a founder of The Lutheran Church -- Missouri Synod and its first president. He was also first president of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, editor of Der Lutheraner, a theological journal for clergy and laity, a writer of several books and tracts on theology, and even found time to write a hymn or two. His magnum opus is considered to be The Proper Distinction Between Law and Gospel, a series of weekly lectures at Concordia Seminary that were bound as a single volume.
