1 Grace Lutheran Church Rev. Matthew Zickler 4101 Wolf Road, Western Springs, IL Office (708) Grace-lutheranws.org October 2016 Dear Saints of Grace, On October 31st of this year, we will be celebrating the 499th anniversary of the beginning of the Reformation. As I am sure you remember, on October 31st, 1517, Martin Luther posted the 95 Theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg. Now many of you know what that was all about, and some of you likely don t. For those who don t, a brief synopsis: at the time of Luther, the Roman Catholic Church had begun selling indulgences which were signed by the pope, and which promised eternal life and forgiveness for someone. These indulgences had to be purchased. They could be purchased for oneself, or for one s loved ones. So, I could buy one for Uncle Bob who died five years ago, and then assume that this paper that I bought would work to get him out of purgatory (a place between heaven and hell, where people would go if they weren t bad enough for hell, or to earn their way into heaven by purification if they had been good enough on earth). The funds for these indulgences went toward building St. Peter s Basilica at the Vatican in Rome. When Luther saw this happening, he was infuriated. How could the pope, whom the Church was supposed to trust, allow men to go in his name and sell salvation? Analyzing the practice, Luther wrote down 95 sentences about these indulgences and repentance in general. They included the first thesis, which said, When our Lord and master Jesus Christ said, Repent! He meant that the entire life of the Christian should be one of repentance, as well as others which questioned the practice of selling indulgences. One even questioned why the pope would sell indulgences to forgive sins, when it would be more Christian to forgive all people their sins for free if that authority truly lied with him. After Luther posted these theses, the printers got ahold of them and copied them, causing them to spread throughout Germany like wildfire. From there, the Reformation began. At its heart, the Reformation was a movement to return to the Scriptures to seek the truth of what is taught. All the more the goal was to teach people that they weren t forgiven by buying a sheet of paper, or even by doing enough good to earn their way to heaven. Ultimately, the Scriptures teach that we are saved because of what Jesus has done. Our sin deserves eternal condemnation, but Jesus has died that our sin is forgiven and we grasp hold of that promise by faith. Luther wanted all to hear this blessed promise that God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Son that whoever believes in Him would not perish but have eternal life. As we remember this world changing event, we will be looking forward in the next year to celebrating the 500th anniversary of the Reformation in In conjunction with that, at Grace and throughout the Northern Illinois District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, there will be a number of happenings helping to keep these events in our mind. At Grace, we will be doing things like reading a Luther biography for our Summer Reading next Summer, and encouraging the reading of the entire Bible in 2017, among other things. Within the district there will be events like those which Concordia University Chicago will be hosting where they will have historical artifacts such as Bach s Bible. With all of this in mind, keep your eyes out for advertising on our boards for such events. Most of all, as we prepare to celebrate the 500th anniversary, give thanks to God for His work through the Reformation, that as we have this monumental event in the past, we can see how much God has done through it. Of the utmost importance, we see the return of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to its proper place as the central teaching of the Church. Soli Deo Gloria, Pastor Zickler
