Publisher's Synopsis
Martin Luther On The Bondage Of The Will is a book written by Edward Thomas Vaughan in 1823. The book is a translation of Martin Luther's work, which was originally written in 1525 and addressed to Erasmus of Rotterdam. In the book, Luther argues against the idea of free will, stating that humans are bound by their nature and cannot choose to do good or evil without the influence of God. He also criticizes the teachings of Erasmus, who believed in the possibility of humans to choose their own destiny. Vaughan's translation of Luther's work provides readers with an insight into the theological debates of the Reformation era and the development of Protestantism. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of theology, philosophy, and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
