On Lutheranism w/ Rev. Dr. Justin Nickel
Saturday Dec 05, 2020
Saturday Dec 05, 2020
Today, Sara and Garrett discuss Luther and Lutherans with Rev. Dr. Justin Nickel of Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary at Lenoir-Rhyne. Discover the wonders of justification by faith alone! Revel at the potential for a gritty HBO max reboot of a dramatization of Luther's life! Contemplate the mysteries of the unknown here on Logos(ish).
A quick note defining some terms:
Justification is a theological idea having to do with God's work in the world. God seeks to be in right relationship with humanity and works through the experience of faith to be so. It relates to legal terminology in which the individual is considered to be righteous before the law rather than guilty of a crime or trespass.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justification_(theology)
Indulgences were an act one could perform, or an item one could purchase, in the 16th century Christian church in the hopes of assuaging a person's time spent in purgatory, a sort of afterlife space that was believed to purify souls prior to resurrection. At one point, the purchase of indulgences formed a large portion of the church's economic base, and they were a point of contention between papal loyalists and protestant reformers who split with the church; though, it should be noted the reform movements that stayed in the church also took issue with the practice.
