Description :
&quotLuter is lyrical, even ecstatic, as he proclaims the benefits of justification
by faith alone...The three treatises are short reads. It would not be unfair to
refer to them as pamphlets. But they are surely the weightiest pamphlets in
Christian history.&quot~ from Wedgeworth's Introduction Luther was not just a
firebrand who riled up the establishment and accidentally started a religious
movement. In these three treatises, we get a full picture of what Luther stood
for and what he stood against. In his An Open Letter to the Christian Nobility,
he explains the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers and calls upon
German princes to reform the church, since the Papacy refused to do so. Then
in The Babylonian Captivity of the Church he attacks the sacramental system
of the Roman Catholic church and explains that the Lord's Supper is not a
sacrifice made to God, but an offering of the promise to the people. He calls
for them to feed the people the bread and wine again. Finally, in his inspiring
On the Freedom of the Christian, Luther proclaims the heart of the
Reformation: the doctrine of justification by faith alone. Because God has
saved us once and for all from our sins and no works can increase our
salvation, we are free to love both God and our neighbor, not from a spirit of
fear, but out of gratitude for everything God has done for us. Read these works
and be inspired. &quotWhaman is there whose heart, hearing these things, will
not rejoice to its very core, and in receiving such comfort grow tender so as to
love Christ, as he never could be made to love by any laws or works? Who
would have power to harm such a heart or to make it afraid? For it believes
that the righteousness of Christ is its own, and that its sin is not its own, but
Christ's, and that all sin is swallowed up by the righteousness of Christ is a
necessary consequence of faith in Christ. So the heart learns to scoff at death
and sin, and to say with the apostle, 'Where, O death, is thy victory? Where, O
death, is thy sting?'. For death is swallowed up not only in the victory of Christ,
but also by our victory, because through faith His victory has become ours,
and in that faith we also are conquerors.&quot~From On the Freedom of the
Christian
