After the count's feud ended and the committee resigned, he was elected to the Lübeck Council on September 21, 1535 , with which he resigned from the cathedral chapter . He was the only canon who left the chapter immediately in the course of the Reformation. As Lübeck councilor he was one of the heads of the Petrikirche . Around 1540, after Lübeck had become Protestant, he was the patron of a vicarie at the Marienkirche , where his brother Christoph sat.

In 1552 he received from Emperor Charles V the status of a nobleman as well as an improvement in the coat of arms and the accolade .
