On the doctrine of the rapture. A thread:

Martin Luther didn’t translate the Bible into German so that ppl could engage freely w/it and get to their own personal conclusions, but instead so that they could all arrive at his conclusions.
(1)
He believed the papal office was the anti-Christ, and the Bible was the source of revelation of God. He was frustrated w/corruption inside the church and the church abusing ppl for political and financial gain, and he believed that ppl needed the Bible to see what he saw.
(2)
He was right about a lot, his frustration was justified, but his conclusions about his work were misguided. Luther believed he was living in the End Times and the story of the Bible was about him and what was happening in the world and to him could be explained w/the Bible.
