宗教改革的五大唯獨（上） Diane Poythress 20140925

Indulgence--buy other's  work and merit

Penance--self work

Luther wanted accumulate his merit,  fast, whipping himself, relics (pieces of saints, hair, finger, teeth) you got points to heaven. Pilgrimage, Jerusalem, exempt of purgatory.

buy yourself and buy indulgence for others

Sacerdotalism, Church through sacrament, Lord's Supper, Mass, sacrifice again. become Christ's body and blood again. they didn't know the book of Hebrew. Altar in Roman Catholic, communion in Protestant Church.

theological problem, order salutis, grace, your will choose God, prevenient grace, Thomas Aquna insisted mind was not corrupt and can decide to choose. following problem, you can lose your salvation.



you can never know the assurance of salvation.

Luther, as a Augustinian monk in monastery, confessed his sins and told his mentor back and back again.

Intercession, Mary? the mother of God, her words counts? or Saints for fisherman, for travel, for every works. Catholics statutes in their car dashboard. Saint Christopher protect driving. losing something, pray for that saint and find it back.



only mediator, Jesus Christ.

because they don't have Bible to read, they listen human tradition alone.

that is very sad. superstitious idols, pictures.

we have same situation today. purse, which temple, idol you go to and can have blessings. no difference. the lies of Satan is same from the Eden.
