About the Conference
On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther did not realize how his 95 theses nailed
to the church door in Wittenburg would be used by God to change the world.
His desire was to see the Catholic Church reform in terms of God's Word. It
didn't, and so, the Reformation was born.
Over 475 years later, we continue to desire our lives and God's church to be
reformed by God's Word. No area of life can be left untouched. History records that Luther, Calvin and other reformers were not readily greeted withopen arms in appreciation for their work. In fact, they faced much opposition. Many were martyred for holding to reformation principles.
Today, we live in a different culture. However the need for reformation in
individuals, the church and society remains great. What is the basis for any
true reformation? What is the goal of reformation? These very practical
questions will be addressed during the Conference. The weekend will give us
an opportunity to look back at what God did in one country and to be reminded
of the basic principles of reformation for any culture or country.
Calvary Reformed Presbyterian Church hosts this conference so that Christians
can better measure all things in terms of Scripture. It is our hope that
Christians who attend will be nourished in God's Word, informed, and
encouraged.
