Summary: | In 2017, churches around the world are organizing different activities to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther's 95 Theses. The Reformation was a momentous event in the church and the history of Europe. This article examines three important legacies of the Reformation to look ahead to the future: the church and economic life; the priesthood of all believers; and the authority of the Bible. In many ways, the issues that Luther has raised - such as authority, church structure, priesthood and ministry, biblical interpretation, and the church's relation to economics and social issues - remain to this day and demand the church's critical attention. |
