What is Reformation Sunday?
On October 31, 1517 (All Hallows’ Eve), a Roman Catholic monk named Martin Luther nailed a document now known as “The Ninety-five Theses” on the church door in Wittenberg, Germany, calling for debate on the unbiblical teachings and practices of the church. It was never Luther’s intention to divide the church or start a “new” church, but rather to reform the church according to the Word of God written in Scripture. Luther’s confrontation with the papacy ignited the Protestant Reformation as a history-making movement that would spread across Europe and Britain and eventually to the New World of America, influencing the politics, economics, education, and common life of those societies. John Calvin (1509-1554) gave further distinctive influence to the Reformation, and it is to Calvin that Presbyterians trace their specific theological and ecclesiastical heritage. The great themes of the Reformation faith are: the glory of the all-sovereign triune God, the supreme authority of Scripture, salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, the worship of God as directed by holy Scripture, and the life of the church as the people of God in the service of God. The true church of Jesus Christ is found in local congregations where the Word of God is preached in its purity and the sacraments are administered in their integrity, where scriptural church discipline is practiced, and where loving fellowship is maintained.
