On this day, 492-years ago, Martin Luther nailed his ninety-five theses onto the door of the Castle Church in Wittenburg, Germany. His 95 theses showed where the Roman Catholic Church had deceived the people into buying God’s Salvation rather than trusting Christ alone for redemption.

As Martin Luther’s 95 theses quickly circulated Europe, people became aware of the false doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church and were curious to discover what the Bible really said about Salvation, righteousness and true worship from the heart.

October 31st, 1517, is viewed to be the beginning of the Reformation, a time God used to revive the hearts of His people and bring the truth of His Word forward.
