While still a monk, Martin Luther had a breakthrough in his view on justification by faith alone. But what was Luther's breakthrough? What changed in Luther's view of salvation that led to the Protestant Reformation? This video explains Luther's breakthrough and his new understanding of justification by faith.

2:45. "I dunno". That's why RR is the sanest and most accessible youtuber on Christianity I know.

I had the thought about 12:53. that when you go about trying to do your best you will never know peace, because your best will never be good enough, its about what are you trusting, God's grace or your best? I trust that God's grace is the "good enough" that I could never have on my own!

The real issue was anthropological pessimism ("total depravity") combined with the emerging sense of individualism and scrupulosity (profound religious anxiety). Luther certainly wasn't the only one, but it's noteworthy that his repristination of the doctrine of justification did not solve his plight altogether.

Medieval western religion was intensely fear-based. We can't neglect the importance of the 4th Lateran Council in the inevitability of the Reformation. That Christians had a duty to confess all their sins to a priest, and that human beings had the power to know all their mortal and venial sins and to distinguish the two. Without that, I don't think the Reformation would have happened. I think people would have responded to the anxiety through private piety, folk religion, and mysticism, much as they had done the previous centuries of Church history.

You are in error to justify Martin Luther's errors and anxieties by blaming them on the times. Luther was neurotic because he never had a sincere vocation. He could have been absolved from his rash vow to become a monk in Confession. He was stubborn, conceited and disobedient. He disobeyed his religious superiors who told him to lessen his penances...but he disobeyed and therefore he became more anxious and more depressed, due to his own sins.

Amusing how he didn't include 1john 5:7-8 in his German first edition but this paganism was added back in. Where is he buried so I can unrinate on his grave...evil monster. His writings led to the death of millions of Jews and Anabaptists . nazi minted a gold coin with him on it.
