This is most certainly true


I went through Catechism class in the Lutheran Church and was baptized and confirmed during my adolescence. In Luther's small Catechism, each section ends with "This is most certainly true."

Much of the history of the Christian religion is to recite statements of belief or creeds. It seems that I thought the truth of the statements would eventually become clear as I matured spiritually. At this point in my life, I do feel that truth (small T) has become apparent to me.

These memories of my spiritual journey came to mind as I thought about how I have never believed in hell.
