Eric Youngberg: Luther Was Willing to Pay Ultimate Price for His Beliefs

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

John 15:13 comes to mind when I contemplate the courage that Martin Luther exhibited the day he nailed his 95 theses to the Wittenberg door.  It reads, “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” Martin’s personal freedom of conscience was directly tied to helping others understand and obtain Biblical freedom of thought, […]

C. Norman Farley: Luther and the Grassroots of Freedom

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

History enlightens us that freedom is a difficult state to achieve and equally difficult to retain. Our current Political/social and Religious struggles remind us of this fact. While there are many in varying religious organizations who shudder at the name Martin Luther, there are also millions who celebrate. The reason I celebrate is because Luther is one of the extreme […]

Barry Bussey: Martin Luther – Christianity’s most dangerous man

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

Historians and theologians will debate Luther until the end of time.  He remains controversial – think only of his views on the Jewish people or his justification of the brutal treatment of the peasants’ uprising.  But make no mistake his posting of the Theses set off a chain of events that continue to affect us.  […]

Steve Wohlberg: The Work of the Reformation Continues

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

Approximately 500 years ago, Martin Luther sparked a “Reformation” within the Roman Catholic Church that shook Europe. Slumbering minds awoke. Controversy erupted. An unstoppable movement was born. The Pope trembled. When the dust settled, countless Catholics-Turned-Protestant had abandoned their church. Fast-forward to today. Interdenominational cooperation has become the norm. Differences are being minimized. Many Protestant Churches seek unity […]

Bruce Cameron: Luther, Life, and Law

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

“This life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness, not health, but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it, the process is not yet finished, but it is going on, this is not the end, but it is […]

Scott Fales: Luther’s Transformation of the West

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

When Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the doors of the Wittenberg church, it began a radical transformation of western thought and culture. But it wasn’t until the Bible was printed in the common languages that mainstream cultures began to embrace the radical truths presented in the Scriptures and the West was truly transformed. The historical effect […]

Edwin Reynolds: Luther’s Impact on the World

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

Martin Luther’s Reformation has had a profound impact on the modern world, not just the religious world but also in the secular world. It was not intended to be more than a call to reform the Church, but it has turned out to be a ringing bell of freedom for everyone. Today we are not […]

Robert Moon: The Martin Luther Experience

October 27, 2017 by ReligiousLiberty.TV

“The Martin Luther Experience” implications exist throughout recorded history.  Control of humans is incomplete unless it controls beliefs related to an afterlife.  In recent history Evolutionary Theory for many includes “You only go around once in life so get all the gusto you can.” Historically,  dictatorship-links between government and one or more religious systems were […]

Statement on the Leak in Dobbs

The leak was intended to disrupt the processing of the decision and we are not going to dignify the leak or the unidentified leaker by analyzing it prematurely. As a constitutional republic we cannot go down that road without doing severe damage to the institution of the Supreme Court where there must be professional courtesy between the justices and their staffs.

Random Quote

“It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. We hold this prudent jealousy to be the first duty of citizens and one of the noblest characteristics of the late Revolution.

They saw all the consequences in the principle, and they avoided the consequences by denying the principle. We revere this lesson too much … to forget it.”

— James Madison
