He was a delegate at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, at which the U.S. Constitution was adopted and the United States of America was officially formed. He was one of the non-signing deleates at the Convention, meaning that he participated in the Convention but was not one of the signers of the U.S. Constitution. He was a delegate from Maryland.

When in the monastery he was plagued by the feeling of the wrath of God. This continued over years, as a monk he did everything he knew how to overcome this terror, neither daily confession nor ascetic exercises helped. Luther, the monk, cried out to God for relief because he felt God was putting demands upon him that no human could fulfill. He suffered infernal terrors, after which his bones felt as if they had been burned to ashes. As he described it in these moments of dread he saw not the slightest gleam of light. One might think his religious struggle had brought Luther to a verge of madness. But, such a conclusion would have vanished the meaning of an important event in his life. This event was a religious or mystical experience in Luther's life, which took the form of an illumination. It occurred in the tower room of the monastery when he was reading the first chapter of the Epistle to the Romans. While reading Luther suddenly saw that Paul was describing a merciful justice, and not a punitive one, which is conferred upon men through Christ and which in no way can be separated from the Redeemer. Because of this revelation Luther was like a man for whom paradise had been reopened. With the selfsame intensity with which he has previously hated God, he now drank in the exceedingly sweet pledge. It was not that Luther found God, but rather God found him. From then on he was oriented more toward the Pauline epistles than toward the Gospel.

Checkin
Joe Cocker! He Killed his parts. Just came to the studio and NAILED his song. Came to the set and blew EVERYONE'S mind with his uncanny timing and innate sense of the moment. BONO came to the set sick from a murderous show at the world famous Madison Square and was sharp and witty and engaging when he didn't have to be. Something about this woman we are working for makes us feel as if we are working with her and not to mention the producers of Team Todd and Matt Gross and the executives...It's just flowing. That's all I can say.
I'm itching for new material. I have a few hundred ideas to flush out on my days off coming up and then I have to run to Japan right quick to handle some business and catch up with Momo. I'm looking forward to that trip even if it's only for a few ticks. Then back to work for more demanding scenes and musical performances. Yall stay tuned. The events of the world have escaped my grasp as I've been lost in this project for so long but I'm about to get cable TV so I'll be doing some catching up soon. Be well. God Bless and thank you for stopping by.

    Martin Luther (1483-1546)
    Luther was a German theologian whose writings inspired the Protestant Reformation. Martin Luther was born on 10 November 1483 in Eisleben. His father was a copper miner. Luther studied at the University of Erfurt and in 1505 decided to join a monastic order, becoming an Augustinian friar. He was ordained in 1507, began teaching at the University of Wittenberg and in 1512 was made a doctor of Theology. In 1510 he visited Rome on behalf of a number of Augustinian monasteries, and was appalled by the corruption he found there. Luther became increasingly angry about the clergy selling 'indulgences' - promised remission from punishments for sin, either for someone still living or for one who had died and was believed to be in purgatory. On 31 October 1517, he published his '95 Theses', attacking papal abuses and the sale of indulgences.

In 1512 he received his doctorate and took over the chair of biblical theology, which he held until his death. Although still uncertain of God's love and his own salvation, Luther was active as a preacher, teacher, and administrator. At some point during his study of the New Testament in preparation for his lectures, he came to believe that Christians are saved not through their own efforts but by the gift of God's grace, which they accept in faith. Both the exact date and the location of this experience have been a matter of controversy among scholars, but the event was crucial in Luther's life, because it turned him decisively against some of the major tenets of the Catholic Church.
