carried ON in the United States.
Rev. Park said. he could give a free
ticket TO Heaven without a stop in
nurpatorv. if the sinner repented. had
Cody sorrow for his sins and believed
on the Lord Jesus Christ.
Luther prepared 95 thesis against
the sinful act of buying salvation
with money and bv works. He found
IN the Bible that salvation was pro-
cured bv repentance. having a Cody
sorrow for sin. 2 Corinthians ITO:
Toel 2:12.13) to turn your heart
-mindl with sorry for wrong doings:
,end your heart, mind. and not your
garment nor punish your body by
works of penance 0siah SGD.
Luther taught the righteousness OF
'aith in Jesus Christ (John 1.12;
ohil.319, Acts 1926. For by grace are
re saved thru faith. and that not of
ourselves. 1t is the gift Of God.
Gphesians %.
Thus Luther found in the Bible and
/. justification by faith in the Lord
.sus Christ as a Precipitation for sin.
