| On October 31, 1517 (495 years ago, this week) Dr. Martin Luther, a Theology professor at the University of Wittenburg, Germany posted 95 Theses on the Castle Church door- challenging Christians to discuss and debate what he believed to be errors and corruption in the church of the time. His hope was to reform the Church, not to start a new one. His main teachings were based on Romans 3:22 "...righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe." And Ephesians 2:8-9, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast." |
