May the Lord bless you and bring you peace. 11 Preface IN PREPARING THIS OUTLINE, the chief difficulty has been to select and condense the material. The aim has been to follow the growth of Luther into the position which has given him his fame, and to describe that position with fairness. I have drawn chiefly from the letters and works of Luther and Melanchthon, and collections of documents in Loscher, Gerdesius, and Seckendorf, but have utilized also all other available sources of information and aids in classifying material, particularly the scientific biographies of Julius Kostlin1 and Th. Kolde,2 the admirable sketch of Karl Burk,3 and the still more extensive popular work of Martin Rade.4 Particular acknowledgments are due the editor of this series, the Rev. Samuel Macauley Jackson, D.D., LL.D., for many valuable suggestions; to my colleague, the Rev. Adolph Spaeth, D.D., LL.D., a lifelong student and expounder of Luther’s writings, for constant advice and numberless favors; and to Julius F. Sachse, the author of The History of the German Pietists in Pennsylvania, for important aid in the selection and preparation of illustrations. The apparatus collected by my predecessor in this seminary, Rev. Charles Porterfield Krauth, D.D., LL.D., for an exhaustive scientific presentation of Luther’s life from an American standpoint, upon which he was engaged at the time of his death in January, 1883, has been constantly at hand and gratefully used.

  • Pope Leo X Demanding His Appearance in Rome Within Sixty Days As a Subject of Heresy
    Introduction: Part 9 During the Disputation in Heidelberg on April 26, 1518, for which Luther had prepared his Heidelberg Theses, he expressed his concern about the meaning of sin, free will, and grace, and defended his views before the Augustinian chapter. It had given him the opportunity “to make a spirited defense of his new theology, to attack the doctrine of the freedom of the will and Aristotle’s reign in theology, and to express a defiant refusal to recant his views.” After it was over, the Nuremberg delegation invited Luther to ride with them in a wagon until their ways parted. At Nuremberg, he he left his brothers and continued by wagon until he returned home to Wittenberg. Luther’s Summons to Rome • On August 7, 1518, Luther received a summons from Pope Leo X demanding his appearance in Rome within sixty days as a subject of heresy. A copy of A Dialogue Against the Presumptuous Conclusions of Martin Luther, written by Sylvester Prierias (Dominican priest and Master of the Sacred Palace in Rome) arrived with the summons. • Prierias had made his position clear: “Whoever says that the Church of Rome may not do what it is actually doing in the matter of indulgences is a heretic.” • The next day, August 8, Luther requested assistance from Elector Frederick the Wise, asking that he not be sent to Rome. Luther’s Summons to Rome • Luther took Prierias’ Dialogue, as soon as it arrived in Wittenberg, and wrote a reply – and had it printed! The publisher issued both the Dialogue and Luther’s response in Leipzig.

  • Martin Luther's “Mighty Fortress”
    Martin Luther’s “Mighty Fortress” by Andreas Loewe and Katherine Firth artin Luther wrote the hymn Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott M(A Stronghold Fortress is our God) in the late 1520s as ain trost Psalm (“a psalm of comfort”), inspired by Psalm 46, “with its own newly composed tune.”1 The hymn does not render the full biblical text into metrical form, but rather provides a paraphrase, drawing on the major themes Luther identified in his commen- taries on the Psalm: “God is our confidence and strength” and “the heathens [nations, ohud] must despair and the kingdoms fall.”2 The hymn was written to encourage the faithful in the tumultuous and beleaguered first decade of the Reformation, when believers were forfeiting their worldly goods and relationships. At the same time, it was intended as a propagandistic weapon in the spiritual and actual battles against the Reformation’s many opponents.3 It quickly became an international feature of the Evangelical movement. In the four centuries since the words and music were first written, Ein feste Burg has often been appropriated as a hymn sung to reaffirm the earthly power and military prowess of Lutheran empires and German nationalists, particularly in the era centered around the Unification of Germany in 1871. The hymn has also been claimed as a psalm of spiritual consolation, especially after the complete defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945. This article emphasizes the hymn’s reception from the 1520s to the present day. It offers a close reading of the German lyrics in the context of the Reformation and of Luther’s other writings, which document that the hymn was intended for spiritual encourage- ment.
