Theology of Post Reformation Lutheranism

This study does more than simply restate the respective positions of the Lutheran Church and Roman Catholic Church of the 16th century, it also examines the pertinent materials of our generation on the same issues. Preus clearly explains where Lutherans and Roman Catholics have equivocated and in the process presents a succinct and honest evaluation of the current Roman Catholic doctrine of justification. It also evaluates some of the various efforts of Lutherans and Roman Catholics to reconcile their differences and achieve consensus or "convergence" on the doctrine.

Justification and Rome

The 18 essays in this volume offer a cross-section of Preus's research and commentary on the doctrine of justification and on the Lutheran Confessions and their application in the life of the church today. Also included in this volume are 4 reflections on the life and ministry of Robert Preus provided by David P. Scaer, John Stephenson, Kurt Marquart and Daniel Preus. Preface and introduction written by Klemet I. Preus, Robert's son.

This is an exhaustive, scholarly study of the age of Lutheran orthodoxy, the period from 1577 to 1713, in which Lutheran doctrine was developed, systematized, and defended by theologians such as Melanchthon, Chemnitz, Gerhard, Calov, Quenstedt, and other. In the first section, the author analyzes the rise and decline of Lutheran orthodoxy, indicating the main contributions of the major theologians. In the second section, the author analyzes the orthodox Lutheran approaches to the theological prolegomena--the methodology of theology, the relationships between natural and revealed religion, the nature of theology, and the training and posture of the theologian. The third section gives a thorough discussion of the orthodox theologians' approach to Scripture--its inspiration, authority, interpretation, reliability, and efficacy. Volume 1 of 2.
