Martin Luther's Bondage of the Will (1525) is a response to Desiderius Erasmus's "Diatribe on Free Will.’ The work is considered as one of the great masterpieces of the Reformation. Luther writes powerfully about man's depravity and God's sovereignty in his direct style, which combines spirituality and humor. For Luther, the crucial issue was the ability of free will, and the extent to which it is subject to God's sovereignty.

Martin Luther is known for his actions and thought. His poetry has shaped many over the last 500 years. This is love poetry of deeper sort.

Dass Martin Luther vor fast 500 Jahren für die Homo-Ehe eingetreten wäre oder ein Plädoyer für die heute so verbreitete sequenzielle Monogamie gehalten hätte, wird niemand erwarten.

Die Bezeichnung "Hauspredigten" erklärt sich daraus, dass Luther diese Predigten 1530-1534 in seinem Hause seinem Gesinde gehalten hat, wenn er "Schwachheit halben" nicht in der Kirche predigen konnte. Eine andere Lesart des Begriffs ist: Diese Predigten hätten "in den Häusern" gelesen und gehört werden sollen. Vermutlich werden Luthers Hauspredigten nur wenigen heutigen Hörern zur reinen Erbauung dienen, obwohl sie viel Nachdenkenswertes enthalten.

Diese Auslegung des Lobgesangs der Maria schickte Martin Luther 1521 dem seinerzeit achtzehnjährigen Fürsten Johann Friedrich von Sachsen, seinem nachmaligen Landesherrn. Der Text legt unter anderem Zeugnis ab von Martin Luthers Sicht auf Maria, die Christen beider Konfessionen möglicherweise überraschen könnte. Jedenfalls werden ihnen Luthers Feststellungen jede Menge Stoff zum Nachdenken geben.

Am 31. Oktober 1517 veröffentlichte Martin Luther seine 95 Thesen – gedacht als Diskussionsgrundlage über die kirchlichen Ablasspraktiken. Doch was als akademische Disputation begann, wurde zum Auslöser der Reformation und markierte einen Wendepunkt der Weltgeschichte. Luthers Thesen prangern kirchliche Missstände an, hinterfragen die Autorität des Papstes und fordern die Rückbesinnung auf den Kern des Glaubens. Bis heute sind diese Sätze ein Dokument geistiger Unabhängigkeit und theologischer Klarheit.

These my homilies concerning the prayer of our Lord Jesus Christ, which St. John has delivered down to us in his seventeenth chapter, I not only saw with pleasure printed and brought forth into public, but myself requested my particular friend, M. Caspar Cruciger, to undertake the labour of collecting them and reducing them into a regular form, (for I had not time and leisure to do it myself) that he might put them into the hands of others. For I was fully persuaded, that this crumb and this cup. of cold water would be useful and acceptable unto godly Christians who hunger and thirst after ...
