Reform
1 The big and powerful ones of this world have begun chasing and making Christ's doctrine odious placing it under the name of Lutero, and this of a way that the one who preaches in any place Christ's doctrine is corrected of “Lutheran“ although it is a question of someone that has not even read the Lutero writings and abides only by the God's Word. And this is what has happening with me. But the case is that before it had known at least the name of Lutero, I had already begun in the year 1516 preaching Christ's gospel …
To be able to preach I devoted myself ten years ago to study thoroughly the Greek language, in order to know Christ's doctrine in his original language. That others judge if with this I have acted properly; but true it is that Lutero did not induce me to it. I repeat that he was not knowing his name and it came to my ears two years after having abided for my account by the Sacred Writing.
The papists, nevertheless, apply me to me and to others the name of Lutero, as earlier I have said, and do it for nastiness, and say:
“Undoubtedly you are a "Lutheran" and you preach as Lutero writes.”
To this only me it is necessary to answer:
“Also I preach just as San Pablo was preaching. Why do not you prefer to call me 'paulinista'? Also, I preach Christ's Word: why do not you prefer to call me ‘a Christian‘?”

Moral: Exactly it happens to the Calvinists today, but on behalf of the same Christians.
The Agreement of Grace
The Agreement of Grace DR. LEONARD J. COPPES (Translated by Mercedes Cordero and Carmen G. Villanueva) WHAT TEACHES THE BIBLE ABOUT THE AGREEMENT An agreement is an agreement between two or more persons. This concept identifies several contractual agreements described in the Bible. Although the fundamental concept of the agreement is relatively easy to exhibit, it is not easy to define since one applies to different types of agreements registered in the Bible. There are agreements that are bilateral, or between two parts that mutually they agree, such as the agreement between Abraham and Abimelec (Genesis 21:27) and the agreement between David and Jonatán (1 Samuel 20:8,18). It might give other examples of bilateral agreements, but with these two examples it remains clear that the word “agreement“ can represent an agreement entity two or more persons.
Big Incentives For The Prayer
“Ask, and one will give to you; look, and you will find; call, and it will be opened to you.” Mateo 7:7 If you are one of so many Christians who need some incentive for his current prayer life, here they are some of the best: "Ask, and one will give to you; look, and you will find; call, and it will be opened to you.”-Mateo 7:7. All of them are divine imperatives about the prayer that suggest us the initiative, persistence and insistence that the prayer demands. And they reflect a boss of progression and exploration of all the alternatives and resources that the prayer shuts up.
Understanding the Biblical Doctrine of the Original Sin
It is impossible to understand the nature and nobility of the salvation if we do not understand of what and how. The answers to these questions are: "of the sin” and “by means of Christ”, and they can seem simple to us at first sight. But what this implies or how is it interpreted this is what does the difference, and what has generated endless controversies inside the Church from the first centuries.
