Description
Summary:Resumé This article attempts to cast light upon Ludwig Müller’sauthorship. Müller was one of the leading figures in the German Christian(“DC”) Faith Movement during the 1930s. He was elected as thefirst (and only) Reichsbischof of the short-lived Protestant Reichskirche inthe first half of the 1930s. For this reason his authorship presents uniqueinsights into the DC-movement’s own reasoning concerning its particularview of the Evangelical-Protestant doctrine shared by many Germantheologians at that time. The article asserts that Müller’s theological reasoning– in his attempt to bring about a harmonization of EvangelicalProtestantdoctrine and National-Socialist Weltanschauung – results in aperversion of the above-mentioned Christian doctrine due to a conspicuouslyanti-dogmatic (i.e. not-sin-oriented), a highly pragmatic orientedattitude towards Christian morals, and a one-sided focus on God’simmanence.
