The Life of Luther by Julius Koestlin is a comprehensive biography of the German theologian and religious reformer, Martin Luther. The book provides a detailed account of Luther's life, from his early years as a monk and his subsequent conversion to Protestantism, to his role in the Reformation and his impact on the church and society of his time. Koestlin explores Luther's theological beliefs and his struggles with the Catholic Church, as well as his relationships with other key figures of the Reformation, such as John Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli. The book also delves into Luther's personal life, including his marriage to Katharina von Bora and his struggles with illness and depression. Overall, The Life of Luther offers a rich and engaging portrait of one of the most influential figures in Western history.Luther had now become possessed with a burning desire to refute, by means of the truth he had newly learned, the teaching and system of that School-theology on which he himself had wasted so much time and labour, and by which he saw that same truth darkened and obstructed. He first attacked Aristotle, the heathen philosopher from whom this theology, he said, received its empty and perverted formalism, whose system of physics was worthless, and who, especially in his conception of moral life and moral good, was blind, since he knew nothing of the essence and ground of true righteousness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
