Reseña del libro "Protestant Reformation, 500 Years After: Causes and Consequences (en Inglés)"
Each 31st of October, Protestant Churches in the world celebrate an event which took place 500 years called the Reformation. I wander how many Christian ministers really know Church history concerning how things were not only in the Church and even in the world 500 years and how, because of that event of a religious leader, by sharing with people of all walks of life what he discovered in the Bible, what God revealed to him, not only that things which were impossible for centuries within the "Church" were done, but human history took a different direction in all aspects of living. The last 500 years giving birth to what we call Western Civilization is nothing but the product of the Protestant Reformation; this is what God, the Master of history, has done in using a sinner as Martin Luther as he can use you, who is reading this book today. By studying his part of Church history, he will learn how God can use human beings as his instruments to accomplish his will; by studying this Church history, he will learn how man can oppose God to the point to mislead and corrupt the Holy Church putting himself in her center; by studying Church history, he will discover how sinners called to serve the Lord are capable to be inspired and bring about the unique Truth which can change people, giving them a new heart, molding them through the Holy Spirit, and transforming them in the image of Jesus; by studying this Church history, he will meet true servants of God and many who will have used their talents, their intelligence, their minds, and what God have given us in this world to make this world a better place where words as justice, love, equality, laws, moral, ethics, goodness, service, free, independence, conscience, grace, humility and individual can be defined and real; by studying this book, he will understand that what happened, the way things were before October 1517 can still happen today if we don't have other Martin Luther and if we don't keep reforming using the platform which is the same Martin Luther used 500 years ago. Be the today reformer. Live for a cause; know your calling.
