rLuther, Spiritualis intelligentia legis est ea, quâ scitur lex requirere Spiritum, & nos carnales convincere▪ literalis ea, quâ putatur, imò erratur, legem posse impleri operibus & viribus nostris citra Spiritum gratiae. rThe Spirituall understanding of the Law, is that by which the law is known to require the Spirit, and to convince us that are carnal, and that is the literal meaning of the Law, by which men think, yea, erroneously imagine, the law may be fulfilled by works & our strength without the Spirit of grace.

Then to Luther, the literal knowledge of the Law or the old letter of the Law, is the false sense of the Law, that we can be justified by works; and Luther never condemneth Law or Gospel, because written and in outward commandments, as Antinomians do. And again, the law without the Spirit, as also the Gospel, is literal and legal to Luther.
