On this view when Luther enjoined obedience to the secular authorities on the occasion of the peasants' revolt he laid the groundwork for 'respect for the authorities and for the inner peace of the state'—so says church historian Johann Matthias Schrockh 1733-1808. Indeed according to Schrockh in the intervening centuries all of Europe should have come to understand that the Protestant religion 'is alone suited to the legitimate power and the true interests of the princes' and that 'all of this is without doubt Luther's work'" Perkins pp. 69-70. <br /><br /> The frontispiece of Luther is fine example of German engraver Johann Benjamin Bruhl 1691-1763. <br /><br /> Schrockh "was an Austrian-German historian and literary scholar born in Vienna.

The wealth of his writings both published and unpublished that constitute his intellectual legacy are now preserved in this authoritative chronologically arranged multivolume edition. Faithfully transcribing the texts of his letters speeches sermons student papers and articles this edition has no equal." "Volume II begins with King's doctoral work at Boston University and ends with his first year as pastor of the historic Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery Alabama. It includes papers from his graduate courses and a fully annotated text of his dissertation. There is correspondence with people King knew in his years before graduate school and a transcription of the first known recording of a King sermon. We learn too of King's marriage to Coretta Scott." "Accepting the call to serve Dexter King followed the church's tradition of socially active pastors by becoming involved in voter registration and other issues of social justice. In Montgomery he completed his doctoral work and he and Coretta Scott began their married life." "King's early papers document the formative experiences of a man whose life and teachings have had a profound influence not only on Americans but on people of all nations."--Jacket.
