Theologia Germanica – eBook

Although the author of this work is unknown, it was discovered and published by Martin Luther in 1516. Upon his discovery, Luther declared, Next to the Bible and St. Augustine, no book has ever come into my hands from which I have learnt more of God and Christ, and man and all things that are. This book encourages Christians to follow the path of Christ, abandoning the life of selfishness, sin, and licentiousness. When we allow the divine light of God to infiltrate our daily activities, God is able to guide our wills with His perfect will. Theologia Germanica was written from within the Catholic tradition, but the author's insightful spiritual advice speaks to Christians of all denominations. Indeed, this illuminating work of Christian mysticism will aid those who earnestly seek to live a righteous life. -Emmalon Davis, CCEL Staff Writer
