Above all else that the sixteenth-century German Reformer was known for, Martin Luther was a Doctor of the Holy Scriptures. One of the most characteristic features of Luther's approach to Scripture was his resolved christological interpretation of the Bible. Many of the Reformer's interpreters have looked back upon Luther's ""Christ-centered"" exposition of the Scriptures with sentimentality but have often labeled it as ""Christianization,"" particularly in regards to Luther's approach of the Old Testament, dismissing his relevance for today's faithful readers of God's Word.
