KW - Luther, Martin, 1483-1546 -- Theology KW - Justification (Christian theology) -- History of doctrines N2 - Tuomo Mannermaa here opens up new interpretive questions for historical theology with implications for ecumenism, ethics, and spirituality. He writes, ""the idea of the divine life in Christ which is present in faith lies at the very center of the theology of the Reformer."" He argues that later Lutheran interpretation of this teaching has portrayed justification as more mechanical and forensic than Luther did, underestimated the extent to which God's righteousness is also ours, and obscured the radical personal transformation that Luther attributed to justification UR - https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/11765/18.jpg ER -
