Description

Early in the course of the Reformation (1520) Martin Luther penned a trilogy of foundational documents addressing the Church, the Nobility and the Christian life. This document concerning the Christian life expounds the famous paradox: A Christian man is the most free lord of all, and subject to none; a Christian man is the most dutiful servant of all, and subject to every one.

    John MacArthur wrote a book called "Slave" to describe the Christian life. Luther wrote a book called "Christian Liberty" to describe the Christian life. Wow! How far have we departed from the Reformation tradition! Evangelical Christians must start reading Luther again if we wish to preserve the purity and simplicity of the gospel for future generations. This is a must read for every Christian, or for any scholar seeking to understand the paradox that Christians are completely free, yet willing servants of all. Luther was a master of using paradox to provoke deep contemplation of truth.

    So much deep spiritual insight! Really helped identify the self-righteousness and legalism in me and begin to understand True Freedom in Christ!
