Publisher Description: The Reformation is more than Luther, but without Luther there would have been no Reformation. He was a radical theologian who inquired after the biblical foundation of the faith. Today in particular, the explosive force of his theology should be brought to awareness. In a time of religious indifference, and of a trivialized Christendom, we need more than ever a new form of radical theology, that asks passionately after God and heeds the word of the Gospel. Martin Luther's God is and remains a provocation. That provocation is at the center of this book about Luther's understanding of Christian freedom, his interpretation of Scripture, his conception of work and vocation, and his theology of the political. In this project, the internationally renowned systematic theologian from the University of Vienna follows up his confrontational book from 2017, Fur die Vernunft. Wider Moralisierung und Emotionalisierung in Politik und Kirche. |
