We need to hear the Gospel every day because we forget it every day. - Martin Luther
Sola Gratia (Grace Alone)
Sola Fide (Faith Alone)
Sola Scriptura (Scripture Alone)
These three concepts carried Martin Luther from
a guilt-ridden monk who spent endless days in the confessional box,
to a rebel who stood before princes and bishops defending his belief in Grace, Faith, and Scripture,
to a leader who translated the Bible so the common people could access the Gospel directly.
And a verse:
But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. Romans 3:21-25
This week as we celebrate the Reformation, daily seek the Gospel and trust God’s gift of faith through grace.
