Martin Luther n n n n 10. studeni 1483. – 18. veljača 1546. Teolog i crkveni refomator Bivši rimokatolički svećenik Otac protestantizma Preveo Bibliju na njemači jezik Njegove pjesme su nadahnule crkveno pjevanje Oženio opaticu Katarinu od Bora Promijenio tijek zapadne civilizacije @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 3

Luter je osporio papin autoritet n n Ustvrdio je; Biblija je jedini nepogrješivi izvor autoriteta Svi Isusovi kršteni vjernici su sveopći svećenici Spasenje je Božji besplatni dar, kojeg se prima pokajanjem i vjerom u Isusa kao Mesiju Spašava se vjerom i to je dar Božji @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 4

Luther-ove metode n n n Prosvjedovao je protiv prodaje oprosta Rimokatoličke crkve 31. listopada 1517. izazvavši papstvo pribio je 95 teza na vrata vitenberške crkve U dva tjedna teze su s latinskog prevedene i proširile Njemačkom, a za dva mjeseca i Europom One su zapalile Reformaciju Današnji dan obilježava se kao Dan Reformacije @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 5

Reformacija je potreba crkve, jer je n n n Zatrovana lažnom naukom paraznovjerjem, neznanjem i korupcijom Obični vjernici nisu poznavali Sveto Pismo Svećenici i monasi su naučavali nesvetopisamske dogme: n n n Čistilište spasenje dobrim djelima Obični vjernici pokušali su se opravdati n karitativnim djelima hodošašćima n raznim vjerskim aktivnostima n @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 6

Bit #1. – Samo Sveto pismo n n n Sveto pismo je naš jedni temelj istine Imamo Sveto pismo i to nam je dosta Rimokatolička crkva u Luther - ovo vrijeme je tvrdila da jedino ona ima apsolutno i konačno pravo naučavanja. Rimokatolička crkva smatrana je autoritetom Biblija je napisana i čitana samo na latinskom. n Prenejasna i zbunjujuča za laike – prosti puk Riječ Božja je dostatna n Ne trebamo drugi autoritet @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 7

Bit #2. – Samo Krist n Krist je naš jedini posrednik n n n Imamo izravan i osoban pristup Bogu Bog se sam objavio i spašava nas Mi ne nalazimo njega, On pronalazi nas - Krist sam Isus je jedini način da saznamo kakav je Bog Isus je jedini put za ulazak u suodnos s Njim kao Ocem, umjesto sucem i jedini put da se spasimo od Njegove srdžbe Isus je jedini utjelovljeni i samoobjavljeni Bog @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 8

Bit #3 – Sama milost n n n Milost je naša jedina metoda spasenja Rom 2, 15, Zakon je naravno u nama – rođeni smo sa savješću, koja nam govori da nas Zakon osuđuje Ali, evanđelje nije u našoj naravi, – ono nije prisutno u našem srcu, umu, volji ili emocijama Mi sami sebe, čak i najboljim djelima ne možemo spasiti Samo Bog njegovim karakterom (ljubavlju, dobrotom, samilošću) nas može spasiti Ljudi vjerovahu da ih je Bog spasio milošću, ali i vjerovahu da njihova slobodna volja i suradnja s milošću je bio njihov udio u spasenju @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 9

Bit #4 – Samo Vjera n n n n Vjera je naše jedino sredstvo spasenja Svrha milosti je da promijeni grješnika u sveca Milost znači proglasiti pravednikom, a ne učiniti pravednikom Potonje je bilo krivo prevedeno s latinskog Bog proglasi osobu pravednikom, prije nego li u biti osoba postane pravednikom Kada osoba povjeruje u Boga, ona je obućena u Božju savršenu pravednost To je doktrina opravdanja; samo milošću i po vjeri @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 10

Bit #5 – Samo Bogu slava n n n Proslavljati Boga je naša jedina ambicija Rom 15, 20, To je bila moja ambicija da propovijedam evanđelje, gdje Krist nije poznat Da je vjernik slobodan, klanja se, služi, proslavlja Boga i uživa Ga zauvijek. Je li Božja slava cilj našega života? Kada mi stavimo evanđelje na prvo mjesto i damo glas Riječi, uspjesi neizbježivo slijede. Reformacija je dalekosežno utjecala: na promjenu kulture, na etiku poslovanja i rada, obrazovanje, poboljšanje životnog standarda itd. @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 11

Temelji naše vjere u Kristu n n n n Naša vjera je utemeljena na činjenici , a ne na osjećajima Mi imamo dokaze, (činjenice) da je Biblija istinita Vjerniku možemo pokazati; Ono što Biblija kaže (Istinu), u suglasju je sa stvarnošću Nevjerniku možemo ukazati na biblijsku Istinu Možemo izazvati nevjernika s pitanjem – je li to što vjeruješ (tvoja istina) usuglašena sa stvarnošću? Kada primjeniš gore opisan test na tvoju “istinu”; slaže li se sa stvarnošću? Razmotrimo neke najvažnije dokaze o Božjoj istini! @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 12

Dokaz za našu istinu 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Biblija je riječ Božja Isus je Bog – Solus Christus Proročanstva se ispunjavaju Mesijanska + ostala Krist je ustao iz groba Arheologija dokazuje Bibliju Znanost podupire stvaranje Biblija je znastveno pouzdana Ako je Bog ljubav i Sveznajuć, zašto postoji zlo i patimo ? @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 13

Isus je Bog - Solus Christus n n n Isus je naš jedini posrednik Isus je tvrdio da je Bog Isusovi atributi Isusova djela (čudesa) Četiri mogućnosti – tko je on bio? n n n Lažac, umobolnik, legenda ili Istina Isus je začetnik naše vjere Isusova dostatnost @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 14

Isus – naš jedini Posrednik n n n Heb 12, 2 “Začetnik i dovršitelj naše vjere” Eph 2: 8 -9 “Ta milošću ste spašeni po vjeri! I to nije od vas, Božji je to dar! Ne po djelima da se nebi tko pohvalio”. Isus MORA biti Bog i bezgrješan, jer nas nebi mogao spasiti. Sveta pisma Isusa otkrivaju nama Još dokaza za Isusov historicitet … @ Dr. Heinz Lycklama 15
