本論文反思路德所教導的「隱藏的神」的意義，並對照路德對神的律法的教導；尤其是律法所作的「奇異之工」，探討路德所謂「上帝的憤怒」在神學
上的重要性。藉此回應基督徒與教會同工處於當代普遍不相信上帝掌管一切，甚至認為上帝與日常生活無關的世界，所面對的靈性試探與自我認同的困境。
由於「奇異之工」的概念來自於路德對於區分律法與福音的教導，以及根據對律法與福音的這架構的救贖觀點，我們可以發現對人的理性而言，律法有二種認知：可理解性和不可理解性。本研究推論不可理解的律法，屬於「隱藏的神」所作的工作，因為單靠理性無法明白神的旨意。我主張上帝所授與基督徒的自由，是靠著在基督耶穌裡的信心從不可理解的的律法中釋放。
對基督徒而言，神雖然隱藏，但是卻從不缺席於此受造的世界。因此，基督徒雖然在生活環境中遭遇「隱藏的神」莫名的攻擊，仍能夠懷抱著基督信仰免去憂慮。
This thesis tends to response that the believers and even the church ministers today commonly suffer or face obstacles in Christian identity while they live in an unbelieving world which people claim God is absent and despise the faith in the cross of Christ. The research starts from reflecting on Luther’s doctrine on the hidden God then compares to his teaching on God’s law by further development of the doctrine of the work of God’s law, specifically while Luther distinguishes it as “God’s alien work”, in another term, the wrath of God. While the concept of the alien work belongs to the law of God according to the teaching of distinction of Law and Gospel, in this sense, we can treat the law of God as twofold perspectives, comprehensible and incomprehensible.
I argue that the incomprehensible law is the mean of God’s hidden will, and God grants spiritual freedom from this incomprehensible law to the man with faith in Christ Jesus. God is hidden but not absent in his creation world; Hence a Christian in faith may live without the anxiety in violation of God’s uncertain purpose and plan regarding every circumstance.
