Rather‚ I feel that the opposite is true. In dealing with Luther’s essay as well as my own personal beliefs I feel that Luther in fact strengthens every Christian’s motivation for faith by way of grace and in relation‚ the use of works to exude an already present faith in Christ. Though it may seem that Luther shuns the
