Here he tries to teach a layperson, who apparently has been having trouble praying, how to carry out this act and why. Luther assumes that faith too requires practice if it is not to shrivel and fade. In this sense he sees his words as a correction to newer Protestant beliefs that salvation results solely from grace, making spiritual practice unnecessary. To that Luther replies: Prayer as part of Protestant spirituality is appropriate within the sphere of freedom. Praying prearranged texts serves the practiced supplicant as a sort of "match" to light the fire of one¿s heart and enable that person to proceed to more freestyled prayer.The theological introduction by Zimmerling as well as the Foreword by Köpf help the reader to better grasp the words of Luther. von Luther, Martin;
