Martin Luther Disputation On the Divinity and Humanity of Christ IntraText CT - Text |
XXII.
Argument: If that which is worse is said of Christ, so too must that which
is better be said. Death is better than sin. Therefore if Christ is called
sin, he is even better called death.
Response: The analogy does not hold. Those who teach are given the task of
teaching aptly, properly, and clearly, so that they may capture their
hearers, who are otherwise offended. He who knew no sin was made sin, that
is, captivity, damnation.
