Reformation Figures (345)
  1. This is an excerpt from “The Freedom of the Christian” written by Martin Luther and translated and edited by Adam Francisco (1517 Publishing, 2020).
  2. The Church's hymns help us see our own world from another—and perhaps not so different—vantage point that illuminates the impact of the work of Christ and the general providing and protecting activity of our Creator in our lives.
  3. The scope of catechesis from the Reformation was broad and included not only instruction at church but in the home and in schools.
  4. As much as Luther calls Christians to a sober belief in the devil, he also calls them to a firm and steadfast faith in Christ
  5. Christians have the rare faculty, above all other people on earth, of knowing where to place their care, while others vex and torture themselves and at length must despair.
  6. Dr. Paulson and Caleb continue reading the book of Exodus.
  7. A truly Christian work is it that we descend and get mixed up in the mire of the sinner, taking his sin upon ourselves and floundering out of it with him, not acting otherwise than as if his sin were our own.
  8. Saying the words of the prayer together meant that if my voice became too weak or shaky, other voices would be around to support and continue the message.
  9. Although human reason pretends to understand a great deal about work and word of God. The glory of it is too bright, the longer he beholds it the blinder he becomes.
  10. The power of music: a natural expression of the children of God! Repent and believe the good news.
  11. Both Hus and Luther arrived at the same conclusion: neither councils nor the pope had final authority in the church. Headship in the church belongs solely to Christ.
  12. Christ presents to us such liberty, so that we as Christians according to our faith may tolerate no other master, but only hold that we are baptized and called unto Christ, and through him have become justified and sanctified.
