Week 145: Reformation Day

Send us Fan MailOn October 31st, 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the Wittenberg door — and the world was never the same. But the heart of the Reformation wasn’t rebellion; it was redemption. It wasn’t about breaking away from the Church, but bringing her home — back under the authority of God’s Word, back to the comfort of His grace, back to the sufficiency of Christ.In this Reformation Day episode, we trace how God reformed His Church through His Word and by His Spirit. From the famine of Scripture in the 16th century to the recovery of sola scriptura, sola fide, and sola gratia, we see that the Gospel itself was brought back into the light: that sinners are justified by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone — to the glory of God alone.As we look back, we remember that Jesus Himself is the Great Reformer. He loved His bride, gave Himself up for her, and is even now sanctifying her “by the washing of water with the Word” (Ephesians 5:26). The Reformation isn’t just history — it’s a living testimony that the gates of hell will not prevail against Christ’s Church.This week, we will be reading the following Scripture:Amos 8:11-12Ephesians 5:24-32Matthew 16:13-182 Timothy 3:16-17Romans 1:17Ephesians 2:8-9Titus 3:3-71 Timothy 2:5-6Psalm 115:1Mark 1:14-15John 4:23-24Happy Reformation Day! We look forward to seeing you again next Friday!
