Divine Kingdom Holy Order
$61.99Add to cartThe canon of western political theory has long misrepresented Martin Luther’s political thought, mistaking it as a forerunner of the “freedom of conscience” or the “separation of church and state,” or an ancestor of modern absolutism and even German totalitarianism.
These misleading interpretations neglect Luther’s central point: temporal government is a gift from God, worthy of honor and respect, independent yet complementary to the purpose and mission of the Church.
Spanning Luther’s career as a reformer, the writings in this anthology demonstrate his resolve to restore temporal government to its proper place of honor and divine purpose.
