The basic presentation of the main aspects of this teaching is preceded by an outline of the historical background of its formation, where both the dispute over indulgences and the mystical inspirations of Luther’s theology played a significant role. The Wittenberg Reformer comprehended justification both as attributing to the believer the righteousness of Christ and as a close union with Him. This unity, whose image is marriage, consists in the commercium sacrum between man and Christ. The participation of a believer in the righteousness of Christ manifests itself as a kind of “transition” into Christ. In this sense, the existence of the justified person becomes an “ecstatic” existence, extra se, that is in God, resulting as a new – divinized (vergottet) – life.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Luther’s teaching about justification as „imputatio” and „deification”}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/104104/PDF/8.%20Porada.pdf}, doi={10.24425/119665}, keywords={Martin Luther, doctrine of justification, faith, iustitia imputa, Lutheranism}, }
