LUTHER'S SEAL

There is a black cross within the heart, to always remind us that Christ saved us through his death and resurrection.  Although the cross is black it does not change the color of the heart because the cross is the source of life. The red heart is in the center of a white rose, to show that faith causes joy, consolation and peace. The rose is white because white is the perfect color of all angels and blessed spirits. The rose is set in a sky blue background, to show that our faith is a hint of the heavenly joy to come. And all of this is circled by a golden ring, to show that the joy of heaven is endless and most precious, just like gold is the most precious metal. 

Luther's seal is an important symbol.  Look at stained glass windows, plaques, and pictures in your church to see how many you can find!
