Melanchthon's Works

For what end does the Law exist? The Law exposes us so that we might find the remedy in the person and work of Jesus.

In honor of the anniversary of Philip Melanchthon’s Birthday, the following is an excerpt from Meeting Melanchthon written by Scott Keith (1517 Publishing, 2017).

Henry found Melanchthon to be a more moderate voice and was eager to discuss theological matters with the young, increasingly famous and respected academic.
