In this sermon we get clear instruction as to why there is a great divide, between Protestants and Catholics.
Now you could say in some away the end result is the same but I'm not so sure the end result validates my next question , I ask is the journey as peaceful as it is for having assurance as it for not having assurance. And then I ask what would be the good points and bad points of both beliefs.
Next i ask for mature heads and kindness in this debate. Whilst we try to understand it.
Key points of the sermon,
People who call themselves protestants have no idea what it is there protesting or why we have a protestant faith.
The reasons they give is I don't believe in Mary like they do,
Or i don't believe the pope is infallible, or I dont believe in confessing my sins to a priest.
The main reason is to do with being Justified by faith alone.
The main reason protestant faith was formed, was in reactions, to do with arguments on how does a sinner find salvation in Christ.
The main reason is because we can have justification by faith alone. And the reformation side believing it's this article in which the church stands or falls, that this understanding teaches the very core of salvation.
And it's this reason for the devide, and why the fracture of the Christendom, was fractured then, and still fractured to this day.
The very reason being the meaning of justification
The meaning of justification in a Latin meaning, means to make righteous which the roman Catholic church got from just studying the Latin Vulgate bible only , so they never looked at the greek here, the meaning for justification in Latin means to make righteous, which stems from the Roman empire, and not the greek. So the idea of justification from a Catholic perspective, was a sinner had to had to made righteous. So the idea emerged that justification would be after sanctification. So in order to be justified you had to be sanctified to a high level of righteousness that is acceptable to God.
How ever the protestant used the greek meaning of justification, which means to be declared, and they developed a doctrine that justification was given before the process of sanctification.
The question is which way do you go now that you know, now that you know the devide was over the order of salvation
