Martin Luther was classically orthodox. Scholars often portray
Luther as a heroic revolutionary, totally unlike his peers and
forebears--as if he alone inaugurated modernity. But is this
accurate? Is this even fair? At times this revolutionary model of
Luther has come to some shocking conclusions, particularly
concerning the doctrine of the Trinity. Some have called Luther
modalist or tritheist--somehow theologically heterodox. In The
Trinity and Martin Luther Christine Helmer uncovers Luther's
trinitarian theology. The Trinity is the central doctrine of the
Christian faith. It's not enough for dusty, ivory tower academics
to know and understand it. Common people need the Trinity, too.
Doctrine matters. Martin Luther knew this. But how did he
communicate the doctrine of the Trinity to lay and learned
listeners? And how does his trinitarian teaching relate to the
medieval Christian theological and philosophical tradition? Helmer
upends stereotypes of Luther's doctrine of the Trinity. This
definitive work has been updated with a new foreword and with fresh
translations of Luther's Latin and German texts.
