Refo500 Academic Studies : Volume 80 : Simul : Inquiries into Luther's Experience of the Christian Life
Outline: The formula simul iustus et peccator is a shorthand for the nucleus and heart of the Reformation. The concept of simul takes readers directly to the heart of Lutheran theology, justification by faith alone; at the same time it constitutes a thought pattern which is a characteristic feature of much of Lutheran theology. The concept, which implies a tension or even a paradox, appears to play a significant role in other areas of theological reflection. This volume highlights several areas in which this ideas has historically played an important role, as well as its potential in the contemporary conversation. The aim of the work is to provide an informed and readable introduction to the simul concept in various areas of systematic theology and Biblical exegesis.
