Really? St. Paul writes in Rom 6:2 "We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?" And Luther teklls us to "sin boldly" and not worry.

Hey, Rom. 6:2 is one of our verses, you're not allowed to use it. :) But seriously, what do you suppose Paul meant by that? Do you think he was teaching that the saved would never sin again, or were immune from sin? I don't think so. Paul admitted himself a sinner well after he was saved, so that doesn't make any sense. I think Paul was teaching the mindset we should have as Christians. Here, Paul was specifically teaching against what your side accuses us of all the time. That is, a sense of complacency and false freedom to do whatever one wants because salvation is assured. Paul rightfully warns fellow Protestants not to fall into that trap. Reformers are well aware of that warning.
Apparently, Luther does not tell you what he tells the rest of us. You must realize by now that the ONLY people in the world who agree with your interpretation of Luther, HATE Luther. Does that tell you anything? :)
