One of the most radical and exciting confessional statements ever made, finally packaged with the reader in mind! The new translation sings, and the commentaries resonate with insight and heart. My go-to version from here on out. David Zahl, Director of Mockingbird Ministries, Nothing is more relevant to our current situation in life and in the churches than the theology of the cross. Better yet, nothing is more relevant than to learn what is is to be made a theologian of the cross, since it is not through much study but much suffering that one becomes a theologian taught by God. This new translation shines new light on the shock and glee that first came to Luther's colleagues upon hearing of what it meant for the cross to be taught by means of the gospel, not the law alone. The translation highlights this exciting method of what Luther called "paradoxes" or contrast statements distinguishing law and gospel, glory and cross, and all that makes Luther's theology still bristle with excitement and trepidation today. The explanations are down-to-earth and will help in one's own formation as a Christian, as well as helping one teach the faith to people who find themselves bewildered by suffering, tragedy and sin even while Christ has given them the greatest of promises concerning eternal life. So whether you have never encountered Luther's Heidelberg Disputation before, or want a new way of hearing the same text, pick this up and read. - Steven Paulson, Nothing is more relevant to our current situation in life and in the churches than the theology of the cross.

Synopsis
The Theology of the Cross is one of the core elements of Martin Luther's theology. The development of this doctrine through the Heidelberg Disputation has been considered an essential element of Luther's breakthrough on justification, and crucial to his theological reforms and future split with the Roman Catholic Church. These statements by Luther, originally penned to be defended in debate, are counter-intuitive, contrary, offensive, and thrilling paradoxes, starting with the first and most astounding of them all: "The Law of God, the most salutary doctrine of life cannot advance humans on their way to righteousness, but rather hinders them." We hope the collection of interpretations that follow the theses in this book will help you to understand their impact., The Theology of the Cross is one of the core elements of Martin Luther's theology. The development of this doctrine through the Heidelberg Disputation has been considered an essential element of Luther's breakthrough on justification, and crucial to his theological reforms and future split with the Roman Catholic Church.

    • Essential Reading for Evangelicals

      The points raised by Luther in 1518 are as pertinent today as they were then: Christianity tends to moralism and legalism. This treatise helps destroy all that. Enjoy!
