A translation of the major texts produced by Luther in the critical years of the Reformation, from the Wittenberg disputation of 1517 to after the Diet of Worms in 1521. Includes many of his most important writings.

The Ninety-five Theses or Disputation on the Power of Indulgences are a list of propositions for an academic disputation written in 1517 by Martin Luther, professor of moral theology at the University of Wittenberg, Germany, that started the Reformation, a schism in the Catholic Church which profoundly changed Europe. They advance Luther''s positions against what he saw as the abuse of the practice of clergy selling plenary indulgences, which were certificates believed to reduce the temporal punishment for sins committed by the purchasers or their loved ones in purgatory. In the Theses, Luther claimed that the repentance required by Christ in order for sins to be forgiven involves inner spiritual repentance rather than merely external sacramental confession. He argued that indulgences led Christians to avoid true repentance and sorrow for sin, believing that they could forgo it by purchasing an indulgence.

The Freedom of the Christian was Martin Luther''s first public defense of the doctrine of justification by grace through faith on account of Christ alone. Luther''s explosive rediscovery of the Gospel of Jesus Christ shattered the Church of Rome''s foundation of works, which considered good works a part of salvation instead of a result of it. Here, Luther constructed a rich theology that relies on the full power of the Gospel, which not only grants saving faith but also nurtures that faith through good works done in the freest service.  This new abridged translation from Adam Francisco, featuring a brief essay from Scott Keith, leaves no doubt that the Christian, secure in Christ, is truly free-free from sin, death, and the devil, and free to serve their neighbor.

Den 2. august 1527 ramte pesten Wittenberg. Imidlertid blev Luther i byen sammen med Bugenhagen for at tjene de syge og bange mennesker. I et åbent brev skriver Luther, hvordan man skal forholde sig ved sådanne epidemier. Også her gælder det store bud om næstekærlighed, der omfatter alle. På trods af fare fra sygdom og død er vi bundet af ansvaret for hinanden. Hvis ens nabo har brug for hjælp er vi forpligtet til at blive og hjælpe, medmindre der er nogen anden, der kan indtage ens plads i pleje af de syge. Ellers skal man så vidt muligt undgå smittefaren og ikke udsætte sig selv for smitte. Luther advarer mod overmodighed, der foragter almindelige forholdsregler mod smitte, og således frister Gud, som har skabt medicin og givet os forstand til at pleje vores helbred. Desuden bringer denne hensynsløshed andre i fare, som man kommer i kontakt med.

Martin Luther is known for inspiring the German Protestant Reformation in 1517 and giving birth to Protestantism. Beyond mere theology, Luther also frequently wrote about the economic conditions in which he lived, often criticizing the conditions the budding medieval money economy created for his less-fortunate contemporaries. This Exhortation of 1540 confirms Luther's keen understanding of the interplay between economic choice and its necessities far exceeding the limited grasp of the economy many will admit for a "mere monk". In reaction to an inactive government, Luther urges clergy to confront exploitive lenders (the usurers). Should these "devils in human shape" refuse to repent, Luther urges pastors to practically excommunicate unrepentant usurers. Luther's pastoral view on economy strikes us moderns as utterly naïve, but arguably this is precisely what's missing from our contemporary discourse of a more just economy.
