I can't resist a good research challenge and wanted to share the results with both of you:

Luther: The Infallible Church Declared the Content of Scripture?

From these paragraphs, it should be obvious what Luther is driving at. It is the job of the True Church- those who believe and trust only in Christ's righteousness by faith, to call the visible church to repentance. The visible church will claim to be God speaking. The visible church may claim to be that authority which determined the Canon. But if the visible church is in rebellion against God, it is the task of the true Christian to point her back to her master.
Thanks for sharing this with us, A-G!
