Dr. Martin Luther's Complete Writings. Sixteenth volume. Containing documents pertaining to the History of the Reformation. Against the Papists, from the years 1525 to 1537.
That so many “Protestants” allow themselves to be baffled by the lies of the Pope serves them right, because they do not hear the man whom God has appointed to expose the abominations of the Pope to the whole human race through the light of the Gospel. Therefore, what we wish for the Church in the Twentieth Century is this: besides the Holy Scriptures, read Luther's writings first and foremost. The sixteenth volume of our Luther edition contains historical documents from the years 1525 to 1537, which refer to the disputes with the papists. Among these documents, however, are a number of important writings by Luther, e.g., his warning to his dear Germans, his Commentary on the Alleged Imperial Edict, his preface to the papist advice on the betterment of the church, his writing "On the Councils and the Church," plus Luther's incomparably splendid letters written from Coburg during the Imperial Diet at Augsburg. The reading of Luther's writings is not only a work, but also a delight and refreshment. F. P.
