Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses and Selected Sermons: A Foundational Work of the Protestant Reformation - Hardcover

by Martin Luther (Author)

A foundational text of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses and Selected Sermons presents key writings that challenged established religious authority and reshaped the course of Western Christianity.

The Ninety-Five Theses, first published in 1517, articulate Luther's objections to the practices and doctrines of the late medieval Church, particularly the sale of indulgences. Though originally intended for academic debate, the text quickly circulated beyond scholarly circles, becoming a catalyst for widespread religious and institutional change.

This volume also includes a selection of Luther's sermons, which provide further insight into his theological development and pastoral concerns. These sermons address themes of faith, grace, repentance, and the authority of Scripture, reflecting the principles that would come to define the Reformation movement.

Taken together, these writings offer a clear view of Luther's thought in both its initial challenge and its broader expression, illustrating the intellectual and spiritual foundations of a movement that transformed European religious life.
