This article presents the concept of the relationship between faith and love, orthodoxy and orthopraxy, i.e. love for God and neighbor in Martin Luther‘s theology. It is based on the results of research by the researchers of the so‑ called Finnish School of Luther Interpretation. This is defined by the view of the reformer‘s thinking, marked by German neo‑ Kantian theology, separating God‘s being and his actions, as well as by the perspective of the Formula Concordiae, emphasizing the forensic aspect of justification. Representatives of the Finnish school note the reformer‘s connection to patristic sources in the form of an emphasis on the genuine participation of the believer in Christ. Within it, the act of justification and the process of changing the believer are understood as two aspects of one event. In the introduction, attention is paid to the sources that shaped Luther‘s theology, and in the end to the possible implications for the theology of Christian action, especially diaconal practice.
