Synopsis

Considered to be one of Martin Luther’s “Primary Works,” many have included this small treatise on Christian freedom among the most important of all his writings. Nineteenth-century theologian Philip Schaff claimed, “The beautiful tract on ‘Christian freedom’ is a pearl among Luther’s writings . . . [it] must meet the approval of every true Christian, whether Catholic or Protestant. It breathes the spirit of a genuine disciple of St. Paul. It is full of heroic faith and childlike simplicity.” If you want to discover what it truly means to be free in Christ, this book is what you’ve been waiting for. Here is a must-read for any Christian who wants a brief summation of what the Christian life is supposed to look like.

Martin Luther (1483, 1546) was a German monk, a theologian and church reformer, he is considered to be the founder of Protestantism. Luther was a professor of Bible at the University of Wittenberg when he posted his famous 95 Theses (1517). In addition to writing many books, Luther translated the Bible into German. Luther believed that salvation was only by faith in Jesus, unmediated by the church. He challenged papal authority by emphasing the Bible as the only source of religious authority and believed the church to be a priesthood of all believers.These ideas helped to inspire the Protestant Reformation and changed the course of Western civilization. He married Katharina von Bora thus initiating the practice of clerical marriage within Protestantism.- Publisher.
