This sounds like an awful lot like a Catholic tradition which Protestants are so quick to disparage.

Agreed, I wonder when the Lutherans will build an idol of Luther and pray to it.

Highly unlikely as he was just a sinful man.
With a stinging sense of humor that got him into the weeds sometimes.
Not to mention he wouldn’t approve because he was very much aware he was a sinner, and in fact didn’t like the term “Lutheran”- that was a term applied by the RC as a put-down.

I’m wondering how well Christians are going to do against Islam when internet trolls have us waging war against eachother like a bunch of zealots angry over whether or not the law allows us to lift a cow out of a well on the Sabbath.
