Luther starring Joeseph Fiennes
This is the third Luther movie I have owned and I believe it to be the best. The other two were older productions.I have watched it at least a dozen times. It is historically accurate (according to R.C.Sproul's cd series on Luther),and I am moved by Luther's passion and courage.In my studies on justification by faith alone, it seems that this doctrine, the very crux of the reformation, is not actually emphasized as such in the movie. At Ligonier.org, I listened to the free teaching series on justification, Sproul noted that it took time for the reformers to actually identify the doctrine of justification as the central issue. Those many other peripheral issues that stem from differences on how they believed justification to occur, were much easier for them to identify; these were emphasized in the movie.
