Eyn Brieff an die FÃ¼rsten zu Sachsen von dem auffrurischen Geyst. Wittenberg

15243177Wittenberg:: Cranach and DÃ¶ring 1524. FIRST EDITION. Quarto:. 21 x 15 cm. . 20 pp. A4 B2 C4 Bound in marbled boards. With an excellent woodcut title page by Lucas Cranach Luther 43c cut from a single block with putti cornucopiae architectural motifs and stags. A good copy light soiling a few stains. First edition of Lutherâ€™s response to the growing danger posed by the radical preacher Thomas MÃ¼nzer who was ultimately executed the following year for leading the violent open revolt that came to be known as the Peasantsâ€™ War. In 1523 Thomas MÃ¼nzer formerly the leader of the radical â€œZwickau Prophetsâ€ began to radicalize the area of Allstedt where he was then pastor preaching that the ungodly were to be eliminated and the elect would establish a kingdom of Christ on earth and threatening the political rulers of the area with rebellion. In early 1524 as MÃ¼nzer â€œgrew bolder in his denunciation of the authorities and called for an elimination of the enemies of Godâ€ he divided the citizenry into military units in order to resist any outside interference in his activities. MÃ¼nzer openly challenged and attacked Luther who was openly opposed to MÃ¼nzerâ€™ ministry of the elect as one of â€œour mad debauching pigs which are horrified by the windstorm the raging billows and by all the waters of wisdom.â€ In his â€œLetter to the Princes of Saxony Concerning the Rebellious Spiritâ€ written in July 1524 in response to the recent violence and MÃ¼nzerâ€™s mystical theology Luther â€œappealed to the rulers to act before the incendiary suggestions of MÃ¼nzer led to civil rebellion and open revoltâ€. Luther â€œdistinguished two sides of MÃ¼nzerâ€™s behavior that of violence and that of precept. Only the subject of violence concerns the princes and to this subject he devotes almost his entire letter. Satan can here be seen at work in a new way and has shown us his hoofprint all too plainly â€“meaning MÃ¼nzer says that one is not to leave it up to the Word but that it is time to resist the authorities with fists with the sacking of cloisters with the destruction of images. Luther demanded that the princes respond preventively by rigorous prohibitions. If the Allstedters wished to defend themselves and show their true colors let them do so in a public trial before whomever they choose. â€œLutherâ€™s book is noteworthy not because he admonished them to suppress violence but much more because he drew boundaries for them to observe. They do not have to defend themselves against MÃ¼nzerâ€™s teaching: â€˜Let them preach as confidently and as boldly as they are able and against whomever they wishâ€¦There must be sects and the Word of God must be under arms and fightâ€¦Let the spirits collide and fight it out. If meanwhile some are led astray let it be; such is war. Where there is battle and bloodshed some must fall and some are wounded. Whoever fights honorably will be crowned.â€™â€¦ â€œThe princes became convinced that the disturbances might lead to rebellion and they summoned the leaders before them. The Allstedt council and MÃ¼nzer were examined in Weimar at the beginning of August. To escape the impending verdict MÃ¼nzer fled to MÃ¼hlhausen where later in the year he gained leadership over the city. He became a central figure in the Peasantsâ€™ Revolt and suffered death in May 1525 when the revolt was crushed.â€Bornkamm Luther in Mid-Career p. 152 ff.

Luther Martin 1483 1546ABAA

Eyn Sendbriff uber die Frage. Ob auch yemant on glauben verstorben selig werden muge. An Er Hanssen von Rechenberg zur Freystadt.

15233175Erfurt:: StÃ¼rmer 1523. FOURTH PRINTING. Quarto:. 20 x 14.5 cm. 8 pp. A4 Modern boards with a stamped Luther rose. With a narrow woodcut title border. A very fresh clean copy with an intricate title page border. All printings are rare. Luther wrote this letter in August 1522 to Hans von Rechenberg a strong supporter of the Reformation and a man who distinguished himself in battle against the Turks. There is no evidence that Luther knew von Rechenberg personally but the question that Luther addresses in the letter whether a person who dies without faith may be saved seems to have been one of personal concern to the addressee. Lutherâ€™s reply is quite direct and to the point: whether men like it or not Luther says God saves no one without faith for to do so would be contrary to his word. Furthermore faith does not seek to penetrate why God does not save without faith. Luther cites four passages of scripture: Mark 16:16 where Jesus says â€œWhoever does not believe will be condemnedâ€; Hebrews 11:6 which says â€œWithout faith it is impossible to please Godâ€; John 3:6 â€œWhoever is not born anew of the Spirit and water cannot see the kingdom of Godâ€; and John 5:18 â€œWhoever does not believe is already judged.â€ Luther writes: â€œNow if God were to save someone without faith he would be acting contrary to his own words and make himself out to be a liar. Yes he would be denying himself and that is impossible. For St. Paul says in 2 Timothy 2:13 â€œGod cannot deny himself.â€ As impossible as it is for divine truth to lie it is just as impossible for him to save someone without faith.â€ He continues: â€œIt would be a completely different question to ask whether God could grant faith to a few at the moment of their death or after death and thereby save them through faith. Who would doubt that he could do this But no one can prove that he does do this. For we only read that he has already raised the dead and given them faith. No matter what he does whether he grants faith or not it is impossible for anyone to be saved without faith. Otherwise all preaching and the Gospel and faith itself would be futile false and deceptive since the entire Gospel makes faith necessary.â€ Benzing 1270 StÃ¼rmer], unknown books
