Nikolaus Von Amsdorf

More about the book

Nikolaus von Amsdorf, a key figure in the early Evangelical movement, was a close friend of Martin Luther and a prominent theologian who lived longer than Luther. As the only nobleman in Luther's inner circle, he was a staunch defender of authentic Lutheran beliefs and played a significant role in shaping the Formula of Concord during the theological disputes following Luther's death. Despite his critical contributions to Lutheran theology, his legacy remains largely unknown today, overshadowed by more prominent figures of the Reformation.
