Questions regarding the Reformation answered by the elders of Kootenai Church--Jim Osman, Dave Rich, Jess Whetsel, and Cornel Rasor. Some of the questions asked in no particular order: Are Christians other than elders allowed to baptize other believers? In what context should baptisms be performed? What is the Catholic belief of "Patron Saints"? What happens to leftover Communion? How do you answer the charge that Protestants have their own bloody history to account for? How does Rome deal with their bloody history in their persecution of Protestants? What about the charge that Christians participated in the crusades? Today Roman Catholics would not consider “anathema” to be anything more than excommunication but not condemnation. Why do you make the claim that it is condemnation? Is anyone attending the Catholic Church going to Heaven? What is biblical baptism vs. covenantal baptism?

Kootenai Church: The 500th Anniversary of the Reformation

The Reformation Q&A

In this message, we see the disastrous effects of false doctrine on believers and unbelievers. We have a clear distinction between the teachings of Rome and the Protestant faith on the five Solas of the Reformation. We get a clear call to share the truth with Roman Catholics. An exposition of 1 Timothy 4:13-16. | Download PowerPoint - Roman Catholicism

Doctrine: Deliverance or Destruction (1 Timothy 4:13-16)

A look at the two ordinances given to the church: baptism and the Lord’s Supper. This message contrasts the Protestant understanding of these subjects with the Catholic teaching.

The Reformation and the Ordinances (Luke 22:14-20; Matthew 28:16-20)

An exposition of Romans 4:4-5. An explanation of imputed vs. infused righteousness.

The Reformation and Justification by Faith (Romans 4:4-5)

A look at what Luther called “the hinge upon which the whole [Reformation] turns,” the subject of “free will.” This message provides an exposition of 1 Peter 1:3 and a look at what Scripture says regarding the nature of man’s will. Is it free? Is salvation a matter of man’s own independent choosing, or is salvation the work of God? If you would like further reading on that subject we would recommend these: The Bondage of the Will by Martin Luther The Freedom of the Will by Jonathan Edwards The Plan of Salvation by B.B. Warfield Institutes of the Christian Religion, John Calvin, Book 2, Chapter 2

The Reformation and the Will of Man (1 Peter 1:3)

A look at the formative principle of the reformation: sola scriptura. What does the Bible say about itself? What is the authority for the life and faith of the believer? In this sermon, we contrast the position of Rome with the Protestant commitment to Sola Scriptura. An exposition of 2 Peter 1:3-4; 19-21.

The Reformation and The Sufficiency of Scripture (2 Peter 1:3-4; 19-21)

This sermon introduces to us the history of the Reformation and the theological issues that lie at the heart of the divide between Protestants and Catholics. An exposition of Galatians 1:6-9 is included.

The Reformation And Another Gospel (Galatians 1:6-9)

A miniseries on the 500th Anniversary of the Protestant Reformation by Justin Peters, and the Pastors/Elders of Kootenai Community Church: Jim Osman, Jess Whetsel, Dave Rich, and Cornel Rasor.
