| Summary: | The article compares Luther's and the Danish poet and theologian Grundtvig's understanding of the Christian person as a Christ-person. Even if Grundtvig lived in the 19th century, the comparison makes good sense, because Grundtvig saw himself as a spiritual successor to Luther who wished to renew Luther's reformation in the context of a new era. The comparison is based on a selection of representative texts and arrives at the conclusion that Luther and Grundtvig substantially agreed but with different accentuations determined by their different eras. Luther emphasizes that the old Adam must die for the new Christ-person can be born - Grundtvig thinks more of an educational (Bildungs-) process, a harmonious growth. But both maintain the priority of grace in this process, which does not exclude, however, that the faith which liberates by grace is an active element. The article ends by asking if the angle from which we read Luther today is too one-sided. Grundtvig, too, read Luther but in a different way. |
