This weekend we should celebrate Reformation Day, which commemorates October 31, 1517, the day that Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses to the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg. The event which marks the start of the reformation.
The theses challenged the institutional churches practices of selling indulgences–a certificate that “guaranteed” the purchaser of a reduction of time in purgatory.
If you would like to know more of the story, you can download the book, Here I Stand, free through October 31, 2010 at The Listener’s Bible.
