Produced by Michael McDermott, from scans obtained at the Internet Archive "Works of Martin Luther, with Introductions and Notes (Volume II)" by Martin Luther is a collection of theological writings and treatises likely compiled in the early 20th century. The volume focuses on key aspects of Christian doctrine and ecclesiastical practices, particularly discussing the lord's supper and the concept of brotherhood among Christians. Through this work, Luther seeks to illuminate the significance of the sacred sacraments and the communal bonds shared among believers, providing both theological insights and practical guidance. The opening of the text begins with a detailed introduction to a treatise on the Blessed Sacrament, composed in 1519, where Luther addresses the misunderstandings surrounding the holy sacraments and their spiritual inferences. He emphasizes the importance of faith and inner spiritual communion with Christ and all saints, contrasting it against the superficial practices of some religious brotherhoods. Luther offers a clear analysis of the outward sign of the sacrament, its inner significance, and the faith required to engage meaningfully with it. He also critiques the corrupt practices of contemporary brotherhoods, advocating for a return to true Christian fellowship marked by genuine love and service.
