<p> (Greek: anti, against; nomos, law) </p> <p> A term made familiar by the heresy of [[Antinomianism]] preached by [[Johannes]] [[Agricola]] as a deduction of Luther's teaching on justification by faith alone. If good works, argued Agricola, do not help to salvation so evil ones do not hinder it and therefore justified [[Christians]] are not bound to observe the law. The deduction is logical, but Luther repudiated it and preached earnestly against it. Though often acted upon by some extremists in [[Germany]] and England, it was never favored by any [[Protestant]] sect. </p> | <p> (Greek: ''anti'' , against; ''nomos'' , law) </p> <p> [[A]] term made familiar by the heresy of [[Antinomianism]] preached by [[Johannes]] [[Agricola]] as a deduction of Luther's teaching on justification by faith alone.
