Fortress For Truth: Martin Luther

By Steven Lawson on Oct 24, 2022

based on 2 ratings
| 12,900 views

"Luther came to realize that salvation was a gift for the guilty, not a reward for the righteous. Man is not saved by his good works but by trusting the finished work of Christ. Thus, justification by faith alone became the central tenet of the Reformation."
