Review on Amazon for Dau's Luther Examined and Reexamined

The Amazon print book of Luther Examined and Reexamined can be found here.

 Luther's memory was so great, and his training so thorough, that he could pull together the themes of the Bible, teaching the Scriptures as a unified truth rather than a grab-bag of sectarian verses. He has never been forgiven for demolishing so many errors in Roman Catholicism and Swiss Enthusiasm.


Luther Will Always Be Cool

Luther has precipitated more attacks than most historical figures, more than most authors. The reasons given are legion, but they begin with more people discussing Luther than studying Luther. Dau's book answers many objections and remains a classic. The best outcome from reading Luther Examined and Reexamined is a regular habit of studying, marking, and remembering his sermons. They are Biblical treasures, often humorous, with many wise and perceptive observations about the human condition and God's graciousness.
