Tell others about Jesus like Martin Luther did:

All Christians are called by God to share our faith (witness) with those who are not Christians.  Some Bible verses that you will find helpful for doing this, and that you may want to commit to memory are found on other pages on our  web site (see: Memory Verses; 2nd Set: Salvation!, Plan of Salvation, and Statement of Faith). _________________

Even when threatened with violent death, Luther refuses to back down...

Regional princes and the powerful Church wield a fast, firm and merciless grip on 16th century Germany.  But when Martin Luther issues a shocking challenge to their authority, the people declare him their new leader -- and hero.  Even when threatened with violent death, Luther refuses to back down, sparking a bloody revolution that shakes the entire continent to its core.                    _________________________
