| Summary | "The Epistles of St. Peter and St. Jude Preached and Explained" by Martin Luther is a theological exposition written in the early 16th century. This work consists of detailed commentaries on the letters attributed to St. Peter and St. Jude, exploring essential Christian doctrines such as faith, salvation, and the relationship between belief and works. Luther aims to clarify the messages of these epistles while addressing ecclesiastical corruption and affirming the importance of Scripture in guiding Christian life. The opening of the text presents Luther's preface and introduction, emphasizing the significance of the epistles in catechizing both the faithful and non-believers about the Gospel’s essence. Luther outlines the message of Christ’s grace and redemption through faith, asserting that true holiness and salvation come solely from accepting Christ’s sacrifice, rather than from adherence to traditional works or rituals. He also highlights the importance of maintaining a pure and faithful heart, urging readers to embrace obedience to the truth as a means of spiritual purification. This introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the letters' theological implications and practical applications. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
