The Freedom of the Christian

In "The Freedom of the Christian," Martin Luther presents his groundbreaking defense of justification by grace through faith, challenging the Church of Rome’s reliance on works for salvation. This influential work articulates a theology centered on the Gospel's transformative power, emphasizing that true faith not only grants salvation but also inspires good works as a natural expression of that faith. The new abridged translation by Adam Francisco, accompanied by an essay from Scott Keith, reinforces the idea that believers, secure in Christ, enjoy freedom from sin, death, and the devil while being empowered to serve others.
