Outline ML’s theological development from monastery to Worms
monastery- concern for salvation, determined to make use of church’s means, peace at first priest – began to feel unworthy of God’s love, severe judge mysticism – on advice of confessor, love god, but I hate him! Teacher – sees new meanings Romans 1:17, justification by faith, free gift didn’t originally see contradiction between his discoveries and penitential system of RC church Reformer – 97 theses attacking scholastic theology, then 95 against indulgences
Luther’s stand at Worms
Unless I am convinced by Scripture and plain reason - I do not accept the authority of the popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other - my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and I will not recant anything for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. God help me. Amen
ML reacted against his sale of indulgences
Johann Tetzel
Purpose of ML’s bondage of the will
answer Erasmus’s 1524 book On Free Will about justification – refute Catholic semi-Pelagian position
Theme of Bondage of The Will
whether or not the will does anything in those things that pertain unto salvation. Man has free will in regards to what is below him but in all things pertaining to salvation is a captive to do either the will of God or the will of the devil. Total Depravity of unregenerate man and powerlessness of his will.
