Concerning Christian Liberty


Read by Jonathan Lange

(4.6 stars; 71 reviews)

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."

Concerning Christian Liberty


(5 stars)

This was an excellent title and reading, and much appreciated refresher on the true principles of religion and liberty found only through the Son of God. It also reveals the love , Luther had for his Master and Saviour, Jesus Christ, whom he understood to be his Righteousness. Essentially, Luther realized, by Word of God , through the Holy Spirit, that justification by faith is simply the work of God only, in laying the glory of man in the dust, and doing for man that which it is not in his power to do for himself. Thank you for taking the time to record this very important message, especially needed in this day and age. As I listened, I was imagining Luther at his desk prayerfully absorbed in his copy of the Scripture by candlelight.
