Jakobus 2:14-26 in der Sicht Martin Luthers [James 2: 14-26 in the view of Martin Luther]

Abstract

"Karl Barth hat einmal das Wort gepragt, dass wohl kein Theologe in der Sache der Rechtfertigungslehre "mehr gearbeitet, gelitten und vor allem gebetet hat" als Martin Luther.' Dieses Zeugnis ergibt sich aus dem mannigfaltigen Bekenntnis des Reformators, der oft und oft selbst betont hat, dass der Artikel von der Rechtfertigung nicht so bald ausgelernt sei, dass er sich darin immer noch wie ein Anfanger vorkomme2 und best2ndig daran lerne.' Nach Jahren des Studiums und des Kampfes kreisten seine Gedanken immer noch Tag und Nacht um das eine: die Rechtfertigung des Siinders vor dem Richterstuhl Gottes allein durch den Glauben an Christus ("Nam in corde meo iste unus regnat articulus, scilicet Fides Christi, ex quo, per quem et in quem omnes meae diu noctuque fluunt et refluunt theologicae cogitati one" ["Karl Barth once coined the word that probably no Theologian "worked more in the matter of justification, He suffered and prayed especially "as Martin Luther. ' This Testimony arises from the manifold commitment of Reformer who has often and often said himself that the products of the justification is not soon stop learning, that he is himself still vorkomme2 as a beginner and it best2ndig learning. ' After years of study and struggle circled his Still thinking day and night about the one: the justification the Siinders before the judgment seat of God alone faith in Christ ("Nam in corde meo iste unus regnat articulus, scilicet Fides Christi, ex quo, per quem et in quem omnes meae diu noctuque fluunt et refluunt theologicae cogitati one"[Karl Barth once coined the word that probably no Theologian "worked more in the matter of justification, He suffered and prayed especially "as Martin Luther.
