Morning Stars: What Was God Doing before the Reformation?

John Wycliffe has been called "the Morning Star of the Reformation." Along with other luminaries such as John Hus, these earlier Reformers stood historically between the darkness of the medieval church and the light of the Reformation. In this session, Dr. Nichols will explain how God used these men as forerunners of the Reformation.

Before Light, Darkness

The Latin phrase post tenebras lux has long stood as a motto of the Reformation. Its stark but hopeful claim shines forth in bold relief in a culture engulfed by sin. By declaring "after darkness, light," the Reformers understood that only the light of the gospel can overcome the darkness of unbelief. In this session, Dr. Sproul Jr. will explore what the Reformers meant by this phrase and how it can inform our witness today.

October 30, 1517: The Eve of the Reformation

Most people remember October 31, 1517, as the day Martin Luther nailed the Ninety-Five Theses. But what drove him to list a series of theological statements for public dispute? Why did he focus on the importance of repentance for the Christian life? What did he want to achieve? In this session, Dr. Sproul Jr. will consider what lessons can be learned from the life of Martin Luther on the eve of the Reformation.
