Reformation Conference Session 1 - The history of Martin Luther up to his stay at Wartburg.

God can use the greatest of human sinfulness to accomplish His great work of redemption, sovereignly orchestrating all things to ensure the line that leads to Jesus. However, with the coming of Christ, we must have mission clarity to love Jesus, obey His commands, and evangelize the lost.

Standing firm in the faith as a unified body of believers requires that we follow Christ’s example by humbling ourselves and being focused on others, knowing that God will exalt us at the proper time.

God can use the greatest of human sinfulness to accomplish His great work of redemption. This is seen most clearly in Christ's rejection, betrayal and crucifixion so that we might receive the blessing of salvation.

Even after a person comes to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the residual affects of sin are ugly and offensive. Praise God that despite our wickedness, He remains faithful and is therefore worthy of our worship!

Before self-sufficient people can enter the Kingdom of God, they must wrestle with God, confront their identity as sinners, repent, believe, and become a new creature in Christ who is transformed by God’s grace.

God sovereignly orchestrates the details of life for the kind and gracious purpose of disciplining those whom He loves so that sinners might be saved and saints might yield the peaceful fruit of righteousness.

God can use the greatest of human deception to accomplish His great blessing of redemption. This is seen most clearly in Christ's betrayal and crucifixion so that we might receive the glorious blessing of salvation.

Despite our unbelief and instinctive desire to trust our own efforts in the midst of trials, God not only protects us from the consequences of sin, He graciously provides His glorious presence and abundant blessing.

There is not a single person in all the world throughout all time who deserves God's grace; and yet before the foundation of the world, God chose a number that no man can count to believe in Jesus and be saved.
