Aparently, not everyone saw it that way. Oh, well, too bad no one can see how the WCF was twisted to teach the exact opposite of what it actually teaches.

Luther was most certainly with we true Reformers:
When Luther's followers, in a subsequent generation, openly deviated from scriptural orthodoxy on these points, they set themselves to prove that Luther had never held Calvinistic principles. . . But we have no hesitation in saying, that it can be established beyond all reasonable question, that Luther held the doctrines which are commonly regarded as most peculiarly Calvinistic, though he was never led to explain and apply, to illustrate and defend some of them, so fully as Calvin did. ~ William Cunningham, The Reformers & the Theology of the Reformation, (London: Banner of Truth, 1967) p.109.
Any attempts otherwise is nothing but liberal history revisionism. As one who has read Luther, it is clearly obvious that he affirmed doctrines as a true Reformer which are clearly Calvinistic.
