Here We Stand by Albert Mohler:
The churches of the Reformation understand that a true church is always reformed by the Word of God.
How One Drunk German Took on the Pope and Lived to Tell the Dale by Matthew Barrett:
For that reason, if we could only choose one word to describe the Reformation, it would have to be the word “rediscovery.” The Reformation was a rediscovery of the gospel and the power of grace, and therefore it was an evangelical reform movement at its nucleus. The question that now stares us in the face, as Luther’s heirs, is this: will the church today rediscover this gospel of grace or will it be lost on us once again?
Ten Lessons from Reformation in the SBC by Albert Mohler:
A church unwilling to break relationships for the cause of truth is a church that will embrace liberalism and abdicate the faith.
