Back in 1517, Martin Luther, the man who spearheaded the schism in the church between Catholics and Protestants, wrote and published a set of 95 theses that articulated his grievances against the Catholic church and its practices.
In 2010, Greg Gordon followed suit with 95 Theses To The Modern Evangelical Church, a set of statements that he believes “many need to hear” about the state of the Church and Christian living.
When I discovered this on Stumbleupon.com, I was take aback by the how starkly true and challenging the statements I read were. How had this not made the front-page of every religious publication?
But maybe that’s how it’s supposed to be. Those who truly want to change their life and their church will read and accept the challenge. And those who don’t will never even know the theses existed.
Take a look and see what you can learn about yourself and the way you live the Christian life.
I hope to be among brothers and sisters who are willing to grow their faith and be sharpened like iron by their family in Christ.
