Luther answered these charges himself. A word for word translation is not possible if you want a readable result.

If anyone wants to read more, I suggest here:

nonsense, romans 3:28 in the KJV is highly readable and it does not contain the word “alone”.

Luther was wrong to add words that change the meaning of the passage.

adding “alone” violates James 2:24

can you imagine the howling if Catholics did this?

let’s see how James 2:24 could be made more “readable”

You see that a man is justified by works alone and not by faith alone.

Under Henry VIII, both high profile Roman Catholics and Protestant reformers got whacked; interesting times indeed.

Read “The Facts About Luther” about Luther’s education or lack thereof.
