Excerpt from Four Hundred Years: Commemorative Essays on the Reformation of Dr. Martin Luther and Its Blessed Results, in the Year of the Four-Hundredth Anniversary of the Reformation A comparatively unknown priest and professor in a small German town on the border of civilization sought to ease his pastoral conscience by inviting the learned doctors of his day to discuss with him a very simple question of Biblical teaching and Christian morals: Can pardon for sins be sold and bought at so much per? There was nothing unusual in his action: hundreds of others had done the same thing before him many more after him. Nor was the question difficult. There has never lived a person who has truly believed that a moral debt can be liquidated in hard cash. But in every age there have been persons credulous enough to become impressed with a pretension of mysterious spiritual power; and there have been others of a shrewdly calculating disposition who have thought it a fine convenience to be permitted to settle their account, if not with God, at least with the Church, on the contract plan of Give and Take, rather than on the terms which the Redeemer offers, when He says: Repent and believe the Gospel! Every age, too, has produced enterprising men who would contrive in some way to accommodate these interesting religious bargain-hunters. Four hundred years have passed since the event took place. That is a sufficiently long time for the entire affair to be forgotten. Few deeds of men amid the kaleidoscopic scenes of this fleeting life outlive oblivion. Luther's protest contained the seeds of immortality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

October 2017 marks five hundred years since Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg and launched the Protestant Reformation. At least, that's what the legend says. But with a figure like Martin Luther, who looms so large in the historical imagination, it's hard to separate the legend from the life, or even sometimes to separate assorted legends from each other. Over the centuries, Luther the man has given way to Luther the icon, a polished bronze figure on a pedestal. In A World Ablaze, Craig Harline introduces us to the flesh-and-blood Martin Luther. Harline tells the riveting story of the first crucial years of the accidental crusade that would make Luther a legendary figure. He didn't start out that way; Luther was a sometimes-cranky friar and professor who worried endlessly about the fate of his eternal soul. He sought answers in the Bible and the Church fathers, and what he found distressed him even more -- the way many in the Church had come to understand salvation was profoundly wrong, thought Luther, putting millions of souls, not least his own, at risk of damnation. His ideas would pit him against numerous scholars, priests, bishops, princes, and the Pope, even as others adopted or adapted his cause, ultimately dividing the Church against itself. A World Ablaze is a tale not just of religious debate but of political intrigue, of shifting alliances and daring escapes, with Luther often narrowly avoiding capture, which might have led to execution. The conflict would eventually encompass the whole of Christendom and served as the crucible in which a new world was forged. The Luther we find in these pages is not a statue to be admired but a complex figure -- brilliant and volatile, fretful and self-righteous, curious and stubborn. Harline brings out the immediacy, uncertainty, and drama of his story, giving readers a sense of what it felt like in the moment, when the ending was still very much in doubt. The result is a masterful recreation of a momentous turning point in the history of the world.

Now in paperback, this classic reader on the Reformation by religion scholar Martin Marty, released for the 500th Anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, shows how Martin Luther's insights still speak to the church today about reconciliation, repentance and the need for "a change of heart." Included are the 95 Theses of Martin Luther. "The "one thing" that opens these pages relates to and, in fact, is the first of ninety-five theses that were proposed five hundred years ago by Martin Luther.... Here is that first thesis, as it was voiced by that influential monk in Germany half a millennium ago: "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said, 'Repent' (Matthew 4:17), he willed the entire life of believers to be one of repentance." So, simply put, this book is about "repentance" as a worthy theme for believers to keep in mind if and as they commemorate events of five hundred years ago, events that still shape many features of their lives." -- Martin Marty Martin Marty's attention to October 31, 1517, the day that Martin Luther promulgated his 95 Theses, provides valuable insights for the past, the present, and the future--why Luther's articulation of"repentance" meant so much then, why his commitment to "justification" has now built a bridge for Catholics and Lutherans to work with each other, and why this great event of 500 years ago might herald a hopeful future for Christian believers and all others. There is an awful lot packed readably into this one small book. -- Mark Noll, Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History, University of Notre Dame I would not dream of preparing my mind and heart for the celebration of Luther's role in the Reformation without finding out what Martin Marty has to say on the subject. And he says it here in this wonderful little book. The gifted historian that he is, Marty gives us much solid information. But he also writes eloquently about how best to prepare our souls for the kind of commemoration that also includes some prayers of repentance. --Richard Mouw This pithy book offers valuable insight on how Luther's 95 theses have had a profound influence on the ecumenical movement, and can help Christians today understand what it means to be a member of a truly "catholic" church. --Kathleen Norris Martin Marty is the most widely respected historian of Christianity in the United States today. In this little book he with clarity, compassion, and a good dose of common sense shows how Luther's story is meaningful today. -- Rev. John O'Malley, S.J., University Professor, Georgetown University From one of the world's most preeminent scholars of religion comes a book about repentance; ...It is a gem. -- James Martin, SJ
