This idea that religion is a business that is open to all and anything goes is great until you see the results.
To lay all of the ills of the past 500 yrs at the feet of Luther is to be devoid of history.
Paul, John, and the other writers of the NT were dealing with false teachings in their day.
False teachings have always existed and always will. And I hate to break it to you but they've existed far more than 500 years. False teachings go all the way back to the Garden when Satan twisted God's word to Eve.
God has given us His Word to measure these false teachings against.
The ills you speak of exist only because we are not applying the Truth to the ills.
Not so grasshopper. The land of Israel is the land God will return to at the end of the 7 year tribulation and destroy all the armies of the earth under the anti Christ and his false prophet, a man who will be a false Christian who hates the Scriptures and believes the lies of the Roman church, who is cultic, yea, apostate if the truth be told.. Search the Scriptures and learn how that half of the church is apostate Christianity, and they are marked by their belief that doctrine divides and love unites. Lie of the devil as Martin Luther learned in the monastery when he found the Scriptures buried in there. Martin Luther was taught lies as truth and it took him many years to learn the truth and stop the lies. Replacement theology is a lie of the Roman church and this article continues to increase the lie. Those who curse Israel will never learn that God is using Israel to fight against the nations that will come to destroy Israel under the man anti Christ, who will come and may already be alive. Search the Scriptures for they speak of Christ and most of modern Christianity has abandoned the truth and are apostate Christians who will be left behind at the rapture for their unbelief of the Word of God. Sola Scriptura.
