Showing results for "Five" in Protestantism

An updated edition of the classic introduction to the essential tenets of Calvinistic theology: its history and content, a biblical defense, and a guide to further study.

The year 2017 is the 500th-year anniversary of Martin Luther nailing his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany - the event that marked the beginning of the Reformation and the end of unified Christianity. For Catholics, it was an unjustified rebellion by the heterodox; for Protestants, the release of true and purified Christianity from centuries-old enslavement to corruption, idolatry, and error. Benjamin Wiker's account rejects the common distortions of Catholic, Protestant, Marxist, Freudian, or secularist retellings of this world-changing event.

If we as Christians want to celebrate a specific event other than Halloween on October 31st, then Martin Luther’s nailing of his 95 Theses onto the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, in 1517 is as good an alternative event as any.

Luther’s 95 Theses, written in Latin, were famously posted by Martin Luther on the door of the Castle Church, Wittenberg, on October 31, 1517, an event that came to be considered as the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. The Theses focus on three main issues: selling forgiveness through indulgences, the pope’s claimed power of forgiveness, and the damage indulgences caused to sinners. The first thesis states, "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said, "Repent," he willed the entire life of believers to be one of repentance."

95 Thesen, gedacht als Beginn eines Diskurses über die Ablasspraktiken der Kirche und insbesondere des Papstes - damit begann Martin Luthers Aufstieg zu einem der bekanntesten Menschen der Weltgeschichte. Eine ungekürzte Lesung.

Les cinq points du calvinisme décrivent comment les chrétiens sont sauvés et pourquoi ils sont préservés éternellement. Cette doctrine nous ramène au temps où nous avons été librement choisis. Elle sonde les mystères de l’œuvre de Christ, qui a acquis pour tous les enfants de Dieu le don de la foi. Elle pénètre l’âme humaine, lui permettant d’entrevoir les mystères de l’œuvre accomplie par l’Esprit, alors qu’il obtient la victoire complète sur notre rébellion et fait de nous les captifs volontaires de Jésus, le Roi.
