In the early 16th century, a monk by the name of Martin Luther sparked what is known as the “Protestant Reformation”.  This reformation was a shift away from the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and towards the authority of Scripture.  From that movement came the “Five Solas” of the Reformation which we still embrace:

John 1:14-18; Colossians 1:15-20

“Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.”– 1 Timothy 4:12 (ESV)
