Any fictional novel that centers on sixteenth century Germany with characters involved in the Reformation piques my interest. It tells the story of Dismas, a broker hired by Albert of Brandenburg and Frederick the Wise of Wittenberg to provide them with their collections of indulgence relics. I like fantasy stories. I like sci-fi stories. I like suspenseful and scary stories. And I like short-stories. This collection has it all. Iain Murray is a great biographer, and J. His faithfulness is an example. This is an amazing look at the careers, friendships, and work of some of the most important literary figures of the twentieth century.
While Tolkien and Lewis are the household names, their interconnected relationships with the other members of their inner-circle Barfield and Williams particularly have had a massive influence on the intersection of faith, literature, and friendship. This book serves both those purposes. Most of my friends and colleagues are conservative evangelical Christians.
Most of my friends and family were born and raised in the south.

It represents a renewed desire among modern churches to return to the early church. And for many that includes more bread and more juice. And during my time there I was posed an important question, one I believe every church should consider: And more importantly, why? For many Protestant churches, the primacy of the pulpit coupled with a strong anti-Catholic spirit begins to dissolve the significance of the bread and the juice.
Christ calls us to declare His Gospel with our mouths: And any attempt to separate the two can prove spiritually deadly, especially when we neglect an institution that Christ delivered personally to His church. More was written about the Eucharist at that time than the doctrine of justification! This is the practice still held by Roman Catholics today — that grace is conferred to the sinner merely by the taking of the sacrament, faith or not.

In fact, it could be said that the Eucharistic controversy is what birthed the Protestant Reformation…and what fractured it. The Supper is not our work.

And his conclusion has as much to do with persecution as it does with church policy:. The most probable cause I can assign for this, is, that till then the religion of Christ being persecuted, few professed it who had not felt the power of it on their hearts. But soon after, Christianity became the established religion of the Roman Empire, a greater number of hypocrites, from views of worldly interest, intermingled themselves with the true disciples of Christ. As persecution decreased, so did the need for assurance in Christ.
When unbelievers partake of an institution that has no personal meaning, it deteriorates the corporate meaning for the entire church.
