A History of the Reformation of the 16th Century (.pdf)
Rev. Charles R. Biggs
The history of the Reformation should be of interest not only to Christians, but to the whole world. For the Reformation of the 16th century was nothing less that the
restoration and reestablishment of the gospel hope of primitive Christianity. TheReformation was a restoration of the gospel of grace, whereby men heard once again the good news that the Sovereign God saves by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. The message of the Reformation was recovered for a sinful and lost world to once again have hope in Christ alone. We should acknowledge that the Reformation happened through
weak and sinful men who were seeking biblical truth in an age of spiritual degeneration, but we must remember that the Reformation was primarily a work of God's Sovereign providence over, upon and in history.
