-STAND FIRM!

-STANDING FIRM FOR THE FAITH~~

October 31, 2012 marks the 495th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. Martin Luther's bold stand for truth was strengthened through his knowledge that the Scriptures are the solid, immovable rock upon which the whole church should base all its doctrines and faith. In time other men and women of faith joined Luther in embracing the Biblical principles of the Reformation--Grace alone, Faith alone and Scripture alone.

-THEN AND NOW

Looking at the spiritual bankruptcy within much of the organized church today, especially the false doctrines and deceptions being promulgated by Bible-denying clergy and theologians, it is obvious that another Reformation is desperately needed.

If the Reformers were alive today, neither they nor their biblically grounded teachings would be accepted by liberal theologians. More to the point, were the Reformers alive today, they would totally reject the humanistic doctrines that the false teachers are now promoting. How do I know? Because many of the doctrines and practices being carried out in 21st-century mainline churches are a complete contradiction of the doctrines taught by the Reformers.
