My German is a little weak but I am sure Arch can straighten me out if I am wrong.
Too bad. I thought the LDS Church had come up with a little something original. I guess not. It's nothing if not derivative.

If the book says Luther originated the concept that doesn't surprise me (see my above post in response to Creekster).

But try googling "Hellenzation of Christianity," and dig a little into authors' backgrounds, there is mostly LDS nexi. And there isn't all that much there there, either.
