The American dream is an idea that attracts many.
The promises of opportunity, success, social
equality, and fortune are very desirable. Though
few have come to a consensus for the definition of
the "American dream", many are reaching for this
concept. In Martin Luther King Jr. s "I Have a
Dream" speech he searches desperately for this
ambiguous idea. In Witold Rybcaynski essay,

The Protestant Reformation, which lasted from the
early- 1500 s to the mid- 1600 s, was caused by
society noticing weaknesses in the Catholic
Church. Such people as Martin Luther and John
Calvin exposed these weaknesses to society and
started a widespread reform of the Catholic
Church. Although the Reformation originally aimed
to renew the Church, it evolved into a great
revolt against it, and thus The Protestant
Reformation should be viewed as a theological
revolutionary movement. One of the ma...

The Righteousness Of God In Paul Theology

The Righteousness of God in Paul's Theology The
question is, of course, how does the Christian
obtain this righteousness? Indeed, what exactly is
"righteousness?" When Luther defines the
"righteousness of God" as that by which He makes
us righteous, his words have a strongly "Catholic"
ring. And a good Protestant will feel a little
anxious when Luther speaks of a "preparation" for
righteousness, sometimes in connection with his
idea of "humility" (which he seems to regard as,
at any rate in part...

The Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth
century produces many differing views on religion.
The Catholic Church didnt change much until the
Counter Reformation, which probably helped to
encourage the Protestants. The Protestants not
only disagreed with the Catholic Church about
their religion, but they also disagreed amongst
themselves. Two of the more prominent Protestants
of the time were Martin Luther and John Calvin,
whose views sometimes coincided, and sometimes did
not. Martin Luther wa...

Sola Fide vs. Sola Gratia Sola Fide, or the
salvation by faith alone, has become the basis for
the Protestant faith. When Luther split from the
Catholic Church in 1517, his new doctrine was
based on five key principles: 1) grace and
sovereignty of God, 2) faith, 3) scripture as the
word of faith, 4) the church as the fellowship of
saints and the priesthood of all believers, and 5)
the fallibility of man and his institutions. As
