To my Former Students in the Augustana
Theological Seminary



By God’s grace alone are we justified and have eternal
life, when in humble faith we behold Jesus, the
Lamb of God, and follow Him. Thus we have cause
also to cherish in grateful remembrance those of His
servants who have preached His gospel in its purity to
our fathers and to us. Hence it behooves us as a
Lutheran people, for the better observance of their
doctrines and precepts, to keep a steady eye on our great
teacher Martin Luther at all times, and to give second
place in our esteem to that foremost champion of Church
Reformation in our Swedish fatherland—Olavus Petri.

In remembrance of our studies in Church History
and Pastoral Theology, please accept, dear brethren,
this guide to the life and teachings of the Swedish
Reformer, Olavus Petri, “preacher of the Word of God.”
Brief as it is, it has been drawn from the best of historic
sources. To Mr. Ernst W. Olson, for his services in
rendering the manuscript into English, my grateful
acknowledgment is due.
