In Martin Luther’s selected writing, Freedom of A Christian, he teaches his readers the steps and ways to reach salvation in terms of grace, justification, and works. He states that how an individual reaches salvation through grace is described with his threefold power: faith frees from the law (59), faith honors God (59), and faith unites the soul with Christ (60). Luther also describes the way to reach salvation through works. To summarize, Luther says that doing good works does not make a good person, but a good person will do good works. He uses the example of the fruit tree and that a good fruit tree will typically always make good fruit (69). In doing good works, it shows your character and doing good for others will help you reach salvation
