Happy Anniversary

Five hundred years ago today , a young German monk began the Protestant Reformation, shattering the authority of the Catholic Church by posting 95 thesis and complaints on the door of a German church.   Luther, a biblical scholar, introduced the idea that man could gain heaven by faith alone --- the righteous man.  So began the Protestant Reformation. ]
"I began to understand that the righteousness of God is that by which the righteous lives by a gift of God, namely by faith."
