Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Gordon Jensen's careful analysis of the 1534 Luther Bible uncovers the central truth of Martin Luther's prodigious translation efforts: Luther's commitment to producing this physical object was founded in his desire that receiving the Gospel might become a lived experience. Contrary to popular perception, Luther's works were not the first, the freshest, or even the most user-friendly German biblical translations of the time. Rather, their power came in Luther's utter commitment to creatively sharing the Word "so that people would encounter Christ within the pages of scripture and through scripture, thus driving Christ into their hearts and lives."Jensen locates proof of Luther's commitment in his deliberate decision to highlight seven specific words and phrases in the text of his 1534 translation. Combined, these terms provide a concise summary of Luther's Reformation theology: the source, voice, content, and command of the gospel. Skillfully tracing the theological implications of Luther's editorial decisions, Jensen provides readers with a crystalline view into the very heart of Luther's theological message. The written Bible is important not for its literary qualities or its "inerrancy" -- an irrelevant premise for Luther, as Jensen explains. Rather, the Bible's essential value is as the conduit through which Christ is proclaimed. Luther's hope was that once someone encountered the Bible, they "would experience the gospel, and having experienced it, want to share this gospel so that others might experience Christ and the Word of life as well." Jensen's analysis of the 1534 Luther Bible uncovers a central truth of Luther's translation: his commitment to producing this object was founded in his desire that receiving the gospel might become a lived experience. Jensen demonstrates how the seven words and phrases Luther highlighted in his edition summarize his entire theological message.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In baptism, a person is called to a vocation of discipleship within the community. However, discipleship has traditionally received mixed reviews in Lutheran theological discourse. When seen as a form of works righteousness or a way to earn God's favor, red flags go up. Yet when properly located within God's call in baptism to both individuals and the community, the baptized discover their vocational identity. Understood in light of the Spirit's work of sanctification, discipleship becomes complementary rather than opposed to justification, thus reflecting one of the paradoxes in Luther's theology. By viewing baptism as a life-long vocation, we see God's Spirit working to transform the disciple inwardly through growth in piety, and outwardly through the transformation of society. Discipleship is also the vocation given to all the baptized--not just the "professional" clergy, whether it be in their homes, in the church, or in society. Though there is a cost to discipleship for both individuals and communities of faith because it challenges the baptized to oppose sin, death, and the devil, the focus is on life and God's proclamation of the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation. By doing so, the baptized live out their vocations in the world. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
