Is Christian belief tenable today? Is it possible to be a creedal
Christian? With the help of Martin Luther, Paul Hinlicky here
explores classical Christian beliefs regarding the person and work
of Christ and human nature and destiny. He also counters
contemporary objections to creedal faith, from the so-called new
perspective on Paul to Pope Benedicts rejection of the Augsburg
Confession to the continuing challenge of Marx.
Luther and the Beloved Community does not present Luthers medieval
thought as a possibility for today, but does make him available for
the future as a teacher of the faith and a help for tackling
contemporary questions of Christian belief. According to Hinlicky,
Luther is misused and misunderstood by those of his own tradition
and needs to be understood not as hero of the faith but rather as
the proponent of a beloved community that does not yet fully exist.
In performing this makeover, Hinlicky reveals genuine new insights
concealed within Luthers rhetoric.
