Religion Quote by Lyndal Roper
““The Gotha sermon takes us closer than any other testimony to the religious despair and overwhelming sinfulness that Luther felt as a monk. And it was at this point that he had begun to study Paul’s Letter to the Romans, an intellectual and devotional exercise that would transform his spirituality.””
![“Luther argued that freedom from sin through Christ’s grace encouraged and inspired Christians to perform good works out of immense gratitude and love for Christ: “The works themselves do not justify him [man] before God, but he does the works out of spontaneous love in obedience to God.” quote by Michelle DeRusha](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/a8c/michelle-derusha-83830_christianity_luther-argued-that-freedom-from-sin-thro_2505626.jpg)
