After darkness, light: How Calvin saved the Reformation

By admin | October 30, 2018 | 0

Celebrations of the Reformation typically revolve around the larger-than-life reformer, Martin Luther. On this Reformation Day, however, I would like to wind the clock forward two decades after Luther posted his monumental 95 theses to a debate you may never have heard of before: the Reformation debate between John Calvin and Cardinal Jacopo Sadoleto.

Joy and the Protestant Reformation

By Timothy Gatewood | October 30, 2018 | 0

“I’m writing a book on joy and the Reformation.” His raised eyebrows were enough to tell me he was skeptical. “What’s joy got to do with the Reformation?” It was one of those questions that is really a statement.

By Timothy Gatewood | October 29, 2018 | 0

The Apostles and Sola Scriptura

By Timothy Gatewood | October 26, 2018 | 0

We historic Protestants believe in Sola Scriptura—Scripture as the sole final authority for life and ministry.[1] But if that’s so, then the ultimate justification for our interpretative model and the theology it produces cannot be an idea or principle extraneous to the Bible.[2] Among other things, the ultimacy, and uniqueness of Scripture’s authority implies that…

By Timothy Gatewood | October 24, 2018 | 0

In my study at church, just above my desk, hangs a wood-crafted plaque with older English words from 2 Tim 2:15: “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” The plaque formerly hung in the study of Gleason Archer, the well-known twentieth…

By Timothy Gatewood | October 22, 2018 | 0

What is the doctrine of union with Christ, and how does it relate to justification and sanctification? Does union with Christ encompass the entire order of salvation or only refer to a specific stage in the redemption process? How should we distinguish redemption accomplished and redemption applied?

Raising the Cross: What Rembrandt tells us about the Gospel

By Timothy Gatewood | October 19, 2018 | 0

Typically when we think of the Reformation and the effect it had “art” is not usually something that comes to mind. However, the theology of the Reformation had a profound impact on art. In his book, How Should We Then Live?, Francis Schaeffer explains that “to say that the Reformation depreciated art and culture or that…
