Oct 29th 2023 - St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran, Howards Grove, WI

On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther posted the 95 theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany. This sparked the Reformation, a movement which directed people back to the Scriptures to realize that they were saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Jesus warned us ahead of time that his disciples would encounter the kinds of problems they faced at the time of Martin Luther. God’s people endured them in the Old Testament, and they still take place in the lives of God’s people today. We live as sheep among wolves, hated just like our Shepherd was, yet bringing his voice to those around us. In these end times, “Stand Firm on Your Salvation.” Our sermon today is from Romans 3.
