Luther's Theology of the cross-3

The Christian...is a spiritual beggar, who can do nothing except cry out for the salvation which is his in Christ.(P.91)

during Luther's exegesis of the Psalter- that of iustitia Dei, "the righteousness of God".The origins of the theology of the cross lie in Luther's initial difficulty in seeing how the idea of a righteous God could conceivable be good news for sinful man.(P.92)

後記:截至目前為止,讀Luther's Theology of the cross讓我感到吃力的地方,是作者在本書裡面,引用了許多第三語言,諸如Iudiciun,Dictata,caritas,dilectio.Quadriga,pactum,而對於相關詞彙解釋的中文資料,更是遍尋不著,看起來要了解Luther's Theology of the cross的內容,還得加把勁了!
