World History per.3
Thoughts and Reflections
Luther believes that the meaning of freedom is freedom from the church, the world, and your self. He talks about the church having rules, and naturally people will want to break, and will break these rules. To try and stop our selfs from doing such things, we fill our life's hole with lots of stuff, to try and fill it with our needs. There for trying to be free of our needs and wants.
The spirit of the Christian faith, is God taking care of you. But not taking faith in God, but instead taking faith in the bible and in the scriptures. The spirit comes from the bible and reading it. Luther is a bible reader, so he tells people about it, reads it, and interprets it. Luther believes that the spirit of the Christian faith is reading the bible and the scriptures.
Luther means that, as long as you are pure, and believe that you are doing the right thing, and living the life that you are meant to live, devoting your life to God. Your body being in good condition means nothing, it is all about your soul. You should only take what you need to survive, living on as little as possible, not taking what you want. It is all about your soul, and as long as your soul is good, then you are too.
Luther thinks that spiritual power, is the more Christian you are, the more pain and suffering you will be able to endure. Basically, being able to survive really nothing but just enough food, water and other things, but mainly living on the Christian power. To me, I believe in the same thing that Martin luther does.
