Reformation Day and Entrusting Treasures
In two books, Paul challenges his readers to know that God has entrusted His treasure of His Word in us, (Titus 1 and Timothy 2) His chosen vessel. On Oct 31, 1517 a man lived that out and put his life on the line. His name was Martin Luther and it was today that he posted his 95 theses on the Wittenburg Church Door in Germany calling all of Christendom to halt where they were and to understand that it was because of the gift of Jesus Christ that now they could as justified believers live by faith and faith alone apart from any works. So it is because of his stand before the entire church of Rome that today we are able to say I am righteous not by my works but by grace alone without fear of reprisal. (Eph 2:8-10).
HAPPY REFORMATION DAY
