The concept of God's two kingdoms was foundational to Luther and
subsequent Lutheran theology. Since the middle of the nineteenth
century, that concept has been understood primarily as a political
concept. But is a political reading of the two kingdoms a
perversion of Luther's teaching?
Leading Reformation scholar William Wright contends that those who
read Luther politically and see in Luther a compartmentalized
approach to Christian life are misreading the Reformer. Wright
reassesses the original breadth of Luther's theology of the two
kingdoms and the cultural contexts from which it emerged. He argues
that Luther's two-kingdom worldview was not a justification for
living irresponsibly on planet earth.
