Foreword by Carl R. Trueman -- Series preface -- Biography of Martin Luther -- The Freedom of a Christian.
Summary: ""A Christian is the most free lord of all, and subject to none; a Christian is the most dutiful servant of all, and subject to everyone." This famous line sums up Martin Luther's powerful treatise on the true meaning of Christian liberty. Published in 1520, On the Freedom of a Christian is one of Luther's most historically significant and enduring treatises. In about 10,000 words Luther develops several Reformation doctrinal recoveries, such as the priesthood of every believer and union with Christ. Luther argues that the freedom of the gospel is not a libertine freedom but a Godward and compassionate freedom. The practical timelessness of On the Freedom of a Christian make it a classic for readers for generations to come"--
