 Cantata BWV 177 - Discussions
For the text of this cantata Bach used a hymn by Johann Agricola (1494-1566).
The chorale melody is definitely not by Johann Agricola as it appears possibly to be even secular rather than sacred in origin, a contrafact that still remains to be traced to its true origin.
The anti-nomianistic subtone, which I still hear in it, even when Agricola Johann, is not the author, gives it an aspect of theological teaching (which is very normal for the first hymns of the Reformation, which were often complete catechisms)...

 The Standard Bearer: July 1, 2002
Agricola taught that the law and the gospel were totally opposed to each other, and that only the gospel ought to be preached in the church.
While Johann Agricola occupied an important place in the Lutheran Reformation, and while he could have been of inestimable help to the cause of the truth of Jesus Christ when that truth was being rescued from the clammy hands of the bishop of Rome, he forfeited his right to occupy this noble place.
Agricola claimed that repentance, the consciousness of sin which saved, and the fear of God arose out of the gospel, not out of the law.

 Johann Sebastian Bach
The prefect in question, Johann Gottlob Krause, whom Bach refused to acknowledge, had already left the Thomasschule in 1737.
That seems to imply that the two were on friendly terms; it is likelier that they became so between 1700 and 1702 than at any later date.
This seems to have come as a severe blow to Bach.

 Cornerstone Magazine - The Voice of Jesus People USA
Agricola taught with some truth that genuine repentance and remission of sin could only be secured under the gospel by the contemplation of Christ's love.
Twentieth-century church historian Robert D. Linder concurs: “Agricola argued that people were sufficiently motivated by hearing of Christ’s sacrifice for their sins that the preaching of the law was unnecessary and perhaps even harmful.
The first is produced by the law, the second by the gospel.

 The Sacrament of the Altar
But they do not strike the simple lay faith in transubstantiation; this sort of faith is the one which enjoys Luther's tolerance as described above.
No one accuses Luther of wanting to make the Sacrament vanish in a spiritual direction when he denied transubstantiation and said that bread remained.
In doing so, one had avoided putting the created bread into any kind of relation to Christ's holy body.

A revised Eucharistic prayer ordered up by the elector was presented at a conference at Jüterbog in 1548.
“What is necessary,” wrote Dom Odo Casel, a major influence on the Second Vatican Council, “is a living, active sharing in the redeeming deed of Christ.”[3] Prominent theologian, Karl Rahner, teaches the same: the sacrifice of the Mass exists only to effect a participation in Christ’s supreme act.
“If Luther were alive now,” burbled Agricola,, “and only heard that the mass…was only a commemorative and eucharistic sacrifice he would live ten years longer for joy.” [16]

 CH0403
The choral work has been called "the supreme cultural achievement of all Western civilization," and even the radical skeptic Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) admitted upon hearing it, "One who has completely forgotten Christianity truly hears it here as gospel."
He is known for his argument that faith is the precondition of knowledge ("credo ut intelligam"), his "satisfaction theory" of the atonement ("No one but one who is God-man can make the satisfaction by which man is saved") and for his ontological argument for God's existence.
He studied under Martin Luther at Wittenberg, and the two worked closely until Agricola embraced antinomianism—an overextension of the doctrine of "justification by faith" that asserted Christians are exempt from the need to observe any moral law.

 National Review: Stealing Jesus: How Fundamentalism Betrays Chri... @ HighBeam Research
While doctrines are only "metaphorical statements" (a statement caricaturing the complex business of what is called analogia entis), certain theologians are reliable: principally John Shelby Spong, who calls Bawer "one of this nation's premier religious commentators," and Hans Kung ("perhaps the most distinguished theologian of our time").
The thesis of Stealing Jesus is an antinomian heresy rooted in gnostic dualism about the flesh and spirit.
On the down side, St. Augustine and other early Fathers gave us at least 1,046 doctrines, of which "only nine concern love." It is also outrageous, I suppose, that not a single clause of the U.S. Constitution concerns oxygen.
