History

Luther proclaimed salvation as a gift of God's grace, rather than something earned by human efforts.  The Roman Catholic Church spoke of God's grace also, but as an enabling power that helped human beings do the works required for obtaining salvation.  Luther still preached that we should do good works, but said those works were a fruit of being saved rather than a source of salvation.

Luther had gone through his own personal struggle as a monk, feeling he was always under the judgment of God.  But then he came to realize, from Romans 1:16-17, that "in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed" that gives salvation apart from human works.  This personal experience became the focus of his theology -- salvation as the free gift of God that lifts sinners from despair.

How did the great society address the problem of poverty?
nataly862011 [7]
The Great Society was a war on poverty and was led by Lyndon B Johnson. There were several things involved in the Great Society :
Higher Education Act which allowed more students to attend college from things such as Pell Grants and loans, etc.
It also included the Water Quality Act which started the testing of water for pollutants and bacteria in the water.
The Air Quality Act also set standards for industrial and auto emissions.
The Civil Rights Act outlawed segregation in all public places and facilities.
Elementary and Secondary Education Act (1965) wanted federal money to be given to bring all schools up to a code and for all schools to have the same quality education. The money was also used for libraries and new technology, special education, adult education, etc.
The Medical Care Act (1965) was a compulsory system. Each pay check was docked to provide medical care for the elderly and the young.
The National Endowment For the Arts and Humanities promoted creativity; PBS was born from this program
The Model Cities Act (1966) made it so the cities could apply for federal aid to clean up slums
Head Start programs as well as CAP and VISTA was also created.
The US now had a form of a welfare system. Poverty levels declined (In 1973, only 11% of the population was under the poverty line). It divided the Democratic Party (Southern democrats were angry about the new Civil Rights Act and started to turn conservative). This plan also created a budget deficit because the U.S could not afford both Vietnam and the Great Society.
