“I cannot and I will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen”
Martin Luther refused to give way. From the moment he had nailed his 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg, he had been a wanted man. His enemies accused him of heresy, his hooks were burned, and he was threatened with excommunication and death. This classic biography by Roland Bainton gives a vivid and exciting picture of the man who turned the church of his time upside down. |
