ABOUT THE THEME NEXT UP @ JESSUP: Jessup Magazine Celebrates 500 Years


of Protestant Reformation THROUGHOUT 2017: Explore the Act of God That Changed Church and Culture


It was five hundred years ago that a young German monk tacked his ninety- five point response thesis to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg. The public debate was birthed, a discussion of reformation surrounding the church, the Bible and a solo induced soteriology. The thoughts and exegetical


instruction of fered by Martin Luther—and many others—is more than a simplistic historical challenge to Catholic practices. Today, the Reformation remains as a continual challenge to the modern era evangelical church. To recognize this year’s 500th


anniversary of the Reformation, the Jessup Magazine will be feature three William Jessup University alumni and their heartfelt, exegetical remembrance and application of the Reformation. In the next three issues of Jessup


Magazine, look for coming articles from Jessup graduates Michael Pagan LEFT (BA, Music, Music Education, ‘15;


M.Div. student - spring issue), Zak Graves middle (BA, Bible & Theology, Pastoral Ministry; ‘14 MAL student - summer issue) and Matthew Crane right (BA, Bible & Theology, Youth Ministry, ‘05; M.Div., Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary and Graduate School, ‘09 - fall issue). At five hundred years, the


Reformation still matters: “For until men recognize that they


owe everything to God, that they are nourished by the fatherly care, that he is Author of their every good, that they should seek nothing but him—they will never yield him willing service. Nay, unless they establish their complete happiness in him, they will never give him themselves truly and sincerely to him.”


(Calvin, Institutes, 1.2.1.)
