Luther was born on November 10th, in the late 1400’s in Germany. The town they lived in, Mansfeld, Germany. The Luther family was well respected and honored in that town and that is why Martin Luther’s parents were so strict on him because they did not want a reputation of a derelict of a son in their family to tarnish their good name.
Luther played a major role in the reformation of the Catholic Church. When studying at the University if Wittenburg he read St. Pauls “Tower Experience” which made him believe he was reborn. Even as the chairman of biblical studies at the University of Wittenburg, “his inner life suffered.”(Luther, “Appeal to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation” in perspectives, P. 92). “Luther was beset by doubts about his own salvation, the result of a consciousness both of his own weakness and divine righteousness.

Theology of mission, however, provides the rails upon which the train should ride.” These rails can be seen in other areas of Biblical study and areas of Christian life. The purpose of this paper is to show how theology of missions is enhanced and solidified by Old and New Testament scriptures, the Nature of God, other aspects of Christian theology and the people who support missions.
