Let There Be Light Rekindling the Reformation Walter Veith

​ @ClashOfMinds1

Why were the Middle Ages also known as the Dark Ages? What was dark about that period of history? Could it be that light was being hidden?

As the Roman Empire crumbled, the Roman Catholic Church’s power grew. By Martin Luther’s day, the Catholic Church was ruling the known world of Europe. It was dictating policy to kings and queens. The masses were illiterate, the Bible was chained to a desk, and to think for yourself was heresy. People were controlled by fear and their only hope for salvation was through obedience to the church. The spiritual darkness that existed during that time was deep.

Luther opposed the Church’s blatant misrepresentation of Christ and the Scriptures. As a result, the official church launched a campaign of intense persecution against Protestant Christians who believed that God’s Word was infallible, not the dictates of the Papacy.

Since the time of the Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Church has been trying to regain its power by uniting all religions. Luther opposed the false teachings of the Roman Catholic Church in his day, and today we must again take our stand for truth.

Professor Walter J. Veith traces the life of Luther and looks at what the Church today has done to reunite the world under its authority. Ecumenism has achieved its desired result and this presentation reveals startling new developments in current religio-political thought (96 minutes).
