In this early work from "one of the defining theologians of American Lutheranism" (James Arne Nestingen, Dialog ), Gerhard O. Forde provides a superlative interpretation of more than 150 years of modern law-gospel debate. In presenting this history, he examines the positions of such outstanding theologians as J. C.
