A Treatise On Good Works is a religious book written by the German theologian and reformer, Martin Luther. In this book, Luther discusses the importance of good works in the Christian faith and how they are a natural result of faith in God. He argues that good works are not a means of earning salvation, but rather a way to express gratitude for the salvation that has already been received through faith. Luther also emphasizes the importance of humility and selflessness in performing good works, and warns against the dangers of pride and self-righteousness. This book is considered a classic of Christian literature and is widely read by scholars and laypeople alike. It provides a deep and insightful look into the relationship between faith and good works, and is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the Christian faith.The first and highest, the most precious of all good works is faith in Christ, as He says, John vi. When the Jews asked Him: What shall we do that we may work the works of God? He answered: This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him Whom He hath sent. When we hear or preach this word, we hasten over it and deem it a very little thing and easy to do, whereas we ought here to pause a long time and to ponder it well. For in this work all good works must be done and receive from it the inflow of their goodness, like a loan. This we must put bluntly, that men may understand it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
