English Reformation

For many modern Christians, the regulative principle is a foreign concept. The question of how one is to go about the worship of God in the assembly of the saints is one that has never occurred to them. One does not have to look very far in order to notice the consequences of neglecting this subject. From the more extreme examples of preachers on trampolines to the more widely accepted practices of skits and solos, the modern church has found itself outside the boundaries of biblically prescribed worship. The Lord has given us His blueprint for His worship. He has commanded us not to add to...

The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) has positioned itself as a movement of divine restoration, claiming to reestablish apostles and prophets with unique authority in the Church. However, its leadership has repeatedly failed to uphold the biblical standards required for those in spiritual authority, particularly regarding the moral character and integrity of high-profile leaders. Rather than addressing and removing leaders who fall into sexual immorality, the NAR has developed a culture of excuse-making, covering up scandals, and even justifying blatant moral failures. This stands in direct ...

On March 9, 1522, a band of about a dozen rebellious Christians gathered in a printer's workshop in Grabengasse, Zurich, fully resolved to march to the beat of their own drum. These renegades were intent on broadcasting a message to the corrupt and increasingly dishonorable Catholic Church...Ulrich Zwingli: The Life and Legacy of the Swiss Reformer Who Fought the Catholic Church during the Reformation chronicles the reformer’s life and teachings, and the influence he had on religion.

A biography of Albrecht Dürer, one of the most influential artists of the Renaissance and Reformation. In addition to creating hundreds of engravings, woodcuts, drawings, and paintings, he wrote books on geometry, fortification, and human proportions. He explored the meaning of beauty in his art textbook, which was called "Food for Young Artists." The Christian worldview which he brought to the field of art is still relevant today.

Trying to escape from the Phoenix District got Andie two things, a broken arm and a broken spirit. While Andie feels like she might be losing it, she has a bit of hope to hold onto. Everyone else in her family may have been taken away or gone missing, but she has Lina. So she’s going to do what Burton Crane ordered her to do and genetically alter the Residents brains so they are the cooperative, docile humans he requested.

It is 2019. 500 years ago this year, Ulrich Zwingli began to preach verse by verse, chapter by chapter, from the Book of Matthew, at the Großmünster Church in Zürich, Switzerland. The result was a new birth of biblical church worship, preaching, and government, and the origin of the Reformed Churches. This book summarizes events and historical figures the loomed large in the Protestant Reformation from Luther and Melancthon, Zwingli, Calvin, Farel, and Knox. It covers the German and Swiss Reformations distinctly.

The office of bishop of Rome is one of the most powerful positions in the world. As an ancient institution stretching back for centuries, the papacy has a history that is marked by archaic and modern customs alike. The history of the men who have held this position is fraught with villainous and heroic actions that have left a profound impact on the development of civilization as we know it, both in the West and East.

There has been renewed interest in the five points of Calvinism among many Christians today. But these doctrines are not a product of the twenty-first century. So where did they come from, and why are they so important? Dr. W. Robert Godfrey takes us back to 1618-19 when the Canons of Dort were written in response to a mounting theological assault on Reformed Christianity. Now, for its four-hundredth anniversary, he offers a new translation and pastoral commentary on the canons, equipping the next generation with these God-glorifying truths.

Most of us have probably heard the story of how a German monk named Martin Luther nailed his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of a church. These Ninety-five Theses were essentially ninety-five complaints lodged against the Catholic Church. In those days, the Catholic Church was the big guy on the block when it came to religion.

Following the execution of the king in 1649, the new Commonwealth and then Oliver Cromwell set out to drive forward a puritan reformation of manners. They wanted to reform the church and its services, enforce the Sabbath, suppress Christmas, and spread the gospel. They sought to impose a stern moral discipline to regulate and reform sexual behaviour, drinking practices, language, dress, and leisure activities ranging from music and plays to football.

Most scholars consider Melanchthon to be a Reformation enigma. He, the developer of the Reformation doctrine of forensic justification, is contrarily condemned as a synergist. Known well as the Protestant preceptor of Germany, he was Martin Luther's lifelong friend, colleague, teacher of Greek, and fellow reformer. Upon arriving at Wittenberg, Melanchthon was a theologian neither by trade nor by training. He was a classically trained expert in classical languages, neo-Latin poet, textbook author, Greek scholar, humanist, and above all, an educator

The modern church is falling apart at the seams. We have abandoned the practice of the sufficiency of Scripture. Instead of following the pattern of Scripture, we have evolved, morphed, and adjusted in order to keep up with the culture. We have done so to the point that the church in the last century would be unrecognizable to the church of the last 2,000 years. The focus of the church in our current cultural climate should be reformation. We should stop trying to integrate the ways of a collapsing culture into our practices in order to draw people. We should stop trying to force revival to...

Young readers enjoy this story a lot, because of the safecracking plot. Adults tend to like the growing up part: starting a shoe store, succeeding, getting the girl, and going straight.

At her execution Mary, Queen of Scots wore red. Widely known as the colour of strength and passion, it was in fact worn by Mary as the Catholic symbol of martyrdom. In 16th-century Europe, women's voices were suppressed and silenced. Even for a queen like Mary, her prime duty was to bear sons. In an age when textiles expressed power, Mary exploited them to emphasise her female agency.

This is the fourth book in a series of books I have written about the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). I have drawn from other portions of my other writings to have some continuity with my other writings. However, in this particular book I wanted to have the focus upon NAR apostles and their beliefs in apostolic government. I wanted to make a concentrated writing in which people outside the New Apostolic Reformation could understand NARs emphasis on apostles. I have included some quotes from several famous NAR apostles to validate their doctrinal beliefs. Even though I have named them, it ...
