Martin Luther's "Treatise on Good Works" (1520) is a key Reformation text that revolutionized how Christians think about faith and good deeds. Luther argues that true good works naturally flow from faith, rather than being a way to earn salvation. He challenges the medieval church's focus on external religious acts like pilgrimages and fasting, instead emphasizing that everyday actions done in faith - from caring for family to professional work - are the real good works God desires. The treatise uses the Ten Commandments as a framework to show how genuine good works emerge from faithful hearts rather than religious ceremony. This influential work helped establish the Protestant doctrine of salvation by faith alone and continues to shape Christian understanding of authentic spiritual practice.
