Being a Christian

As Christians, we are set free from our sinful love of self and find true satisfaction in loving Jesus. The Bible tells us who we are right at the beginning, as God's image and children. We are no longer asking the question, who am I? We know these things to be true of us, as we are adopted into God's family and made his children, able to call God Abba, Father. [... more]

Defining Our Terms

The doctrine of justification by faith alone is a central tenet of the Protestant Reformation, contrasting with the Roman Catholic Church's understanding of justification through infused righteousness. The Protestant view emphasizes the imputation of Christ's righteousness, while the Roman Catholic Church sees justification as a process of sanctification. The concept of instrumental cause, as discussed by Aristotle, is also relevant to the debate, with the Protestant reformers arguing that faith is the sole instrumental cause of justification.

The Roman Catholic View

The Ninety-Five Theses

Martin Luther's experience of salvation led him to re-read the Psalms and understand justification by faith on virtually every page of the Bible. This understanding was influenced by Augustine's interpretation of Romans 1, which described the righteousness of God as a righteousness that God provides for people who are not righteous. Luther's discovery of this concept led him to challenge the abuses of the Roman Catholic Church, particularly the sale of indulgences, which he saw as a corrupt practice that led people to believe they could buy salvation.

Martin Luther's journey to becoming the spark that ignited the Reformation was marked by intense guilt and a deep desire for redemption. His experiences as a monk and his visit to Rome, where he was disillusioned by the corruption of the Roman priesthood, ultimately led him to question the Catholic Church's teachings and to write the 95 theses that would change the course of history.
