Zu wem spricht Luther : ein Diskussionsbeitrag.

The universality of Luther's appeal raises the question: Who are the most appropriate dialogue partners for Luther and Lutherans? dialogue with Luther occurs at many levels within the church, but in theology's conversations with non-theists, Luther's theological anthropology often comes under attack, especially from Marxists who have accepted Feuerbach's criticisms of Luther's so-called subjectivity and psychologism. Every misunderstanding of Luther's anthropology begins with an attempt to analyze the human being apart from the person's relation to God in Christ. However, Luther's anthropology relies on his soteriology and its attendant non-traditional, dynamic view of human possibilities in Christ.
