Beneath the stained glass windows there is a statue of a man praying to statues. This is the church where Martin Luther is entombed, the 95 Theses were posted on the door to this church, this church more than any other place is where the Reformation BEGAN. And yet this church is full of statues and stained glass depicting the Blessed Virgin and Crucifixes.
So, please explain why these weren't removed if they were so objectionable to Luther. For that matter, those of you who have so many issues with Catholic/Orthodox Marian beliefs should have the same issues with Martin Luther because HE BELIEVED THE SAME THING THAT CATHOLICS DO ABOUT THE BLESSED VIRGIN!
Then he was wrong too. The Reformation was just the beginning of the turn back to scripture and the true teachings of Christ and the Apostles, not the end. Wherever error is found it must be exposed to the Light.
He didn't believe the same things that you all believe today because some of these things were not even dogma in the 1500s.
Also, he is not praying to statues. He is just praying. The statues are another piece of artwork in the room.
