Luther's Faith presents a fresh, provocative assessment of Luther's theology from an ecumenical perspective. The author explores the various nuances of the Reformer's thought from the vantage point of the central evangelical affirmation of justification by grace. In so doing, he wrestles with such pressing and difficult issues as the contemporary role of the papacy, the Roman sacramental system in the light of Luther's strictures, and the prospects for meaningful Roman Catholic-Protestant dialog. The major thesis of this book is that Luther's chief contribution to the religious life of the Reformation was his rediscovery of the Gospel with its liberating message that faith or trust in Jesus Christ as Savior is the all-sufficient means for salvation.
