3. Welcome to Redeemer!
This week we see that God’s Word—and God’s Word alone—takes precedent over all others and sets principles like none other. 500 years ago, the main source for spiritual authority was hidden behind clerical authority and man-made tradition. Priests and monasteries had a monopoly.

4. Welcome to Redeemer!
Today, work righteousness is seen in mantras like, “God helps those who help themselves” or modicums like “All you got to do is…” If true, how could you ever know if you have done enough? We can’t. Thus, half a millennium later we still see and hear that God saves by grace alone. Still.
