Introduction/Scene setup
Now that we meet as followers of Christ, how come we do not offer indulgences to the chaplain?
Why don’t we pray to a patron saint?
Is there a reason why we wouldn’t need someone to help us reach God to help us in our needs and prayer?
These were similar questions to a unique person in History known as Martin Luther.
The freedoms we enjoy such as having a bible in our own language, and the understanding of direct access to God as it says in Scripture, comes from the changes he started.
Video example (run in browser)
Martin Luther was a smart person.
He was going to school to be a lawyer when his life was turned around that day.
He was a good thinker, and good speaker.
Martin discovered through his experience that scripture was clear
In the same time that the new word, America, was being discovered, Martin Luther was pronouncing the doctrine of faith.
Scripture Reading
2 Peter 2:4-5
Main point
Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
Discussion
From Martin Luther’s contribution we understand:
Sola Fide (by faith alone)
Sola Scriptura (from scripture alone)
Sola Gracia (by grace alone)
Solus Christus (through Christ alone)
Soli Deo gloria (glory to God alone)
scripture over tradition, faith over works, and grace over merit
Illustration
A pastor once looked at a balloon carried by a boy.
