    El 31 de octubre de 1517 Mart穩n Lutero clav籀 en las puertas de la catedral de Wittenberg en Alemania 95 tesis en las que criticaba abiertamente las ventas de indulgencias de la iglesia cat籀lica romana. Lutero inicialmente no ten穩a la intenci籀n de romper con la iglesia romana sino enfatizar la supremac穩a del evangelio basada en su simplicidad y a la vez en su gran profundidad. El evangelio o las buenas noticias de la salvaci籀n en Cristo es el fundamento esencial de la fe cristiana y desgraciadamente se hab穩a pervertido convirti矇ndose en una pr獺ctica totalmente ajena a su esencia. De manera que, las indulgencias eran una distorsi籀n absoluta del evangelio y, por lo tanto, dignas de ser repudiadas con severidad. Como resultado de esta acci籀n, Lutero inici籀 el movimiento conocido como la Reforma Protestante y cada 31 de octubre se conmemora como el D穩a de la Reforma.

    Thaddeus Williams — 

    I recently watched a disturbing video. A camera caught the head of a certain political organization; well call him Lucius, attempting to convince a packed auditorium about the reality of moral law. Specifically, Lucius appealed to a real moral law above and beyond culture to argue against a right to homosexual marriage. What struck me most was less of what he said and more how he said it. Lucius taunted the crowd relentlessly, hurling insults like hand grenades. People often argue against moral reality by appealing to moral reality (e.g., there cant be absolutes because look at out how absolutely wrong the crusades and inquisitions were!). But there is an equal and opposite inconsistency, namely, arguing for moral reality while breaking the very morality we are defending (e.g., real morals like love your neighbor exist, you ignoramus!). In other words, Lucius problem was that he did not argue his worldview as if his worldview were actually true. No matter what he said, the way in which he said it made it seem like morals like love and respect were not to be taken seriously after all. The medium refuted the message.

    After thirty-five years of service, James Adamsons NICNT commentary on the Epistle of James has received a much-needed update by Scot McKnight. McKnights contribution to the series significantly expands on its predecessor volumebeing more than twice its sizewhich is due, in part, to the mounting scholarship on James appearing since its 1976 publication date.

    Being a retreat speaker can be an enjoyable time but can also be a challenging time. The difference maker for which outcome occurs is largely dependent on the host for the speaker. Over the years, as both a speaker and also as a host, Ive seen some excellent treatment of speakers and also some situations that could use a lot of improvement. This will be a 2 part series of blogs in which I hope to highlight some ways to invite and host a guest speaker in which he would feel very well taken care of throughout the whole process. In this first part of the series, I will focus on how to invite a guest speaker to a retreat.

    John McKinley — 

    Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body (1 Cor 6:18 NASB). Why is sexual sin singled out as uniquely damaging to the body in a way that other physical actions are not? Substance abuse, gluttony, cuttingthese are all harmful acts to the body, but they do not do what sexual misconduct does, according to Paul. Typical responses from students to explain this exception are that sex involves the whole person, or maybe because it involves someone else. The same could be said for illegal drug use, so there must be something more.

    El gran educador Antonio del Corro (Sevilla, 1527-Londres, 1591) es quiz獺 una de las figuras m獺s importantes y a la vez menos conocidas de la reforma espa簽ola. Es tambi矇n un ejemplo a imitar para todos los que seguimos a Cristo y sobre todo para los que nos dedicamos a servirle a trav矇s de la ense簽anza. El historiador Emilio Monjo se refiere a Antonio de Corro como un personaje que refleja el talante de la Reforma espa簽ola en cuanto a su libertad de pensamiento y palabra: una iglesia que hab穩a nacido libre por la acci籀n de la Escritura, y que se mantuvo libre con la Escritura tambi矇n en su exilio europeo".
